  This has absolutely nothing to do with any upgrades.

  The follow the Pinterest Site Verification instructions provided in the support docs which are all at http://support.wordpress.com
  Go to http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/#pinterest-site-verification

  Go to Dashboard > Sharing please and use this guide http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#customize-your-services to enable a sharing icon so it will display under each post. The “Pin it” hover button has been added. It now gets auto-enabled if you have connected Pinterest in Settings > Sharing and selected the “Official buttons” option for button style setting.

  Be aware that there is a browser add-on visitors can use to pin images.

  If you have enabled the official buttons, a “Pin It” hover button will automatically appear for your images.
