Ethereum Hard Fork in October? - Programmer explains

in #ethereum7 years ago

Ethereum is going to do a hard fork in October. The fork is going to be called Byzantium Hard Fork and is a part of the Ethereum Metropolis rollout.

We discuss why the fork will happen, that is the idea behind the fork and discuss the risk of seeing a chain split.

We also talk about how the fork will contribute to Ethereum scalability and security of the Ethereum network.

Great and neccesary info

Only a few minutes in but already enjoying @ivanli - keep up your good work!! I think the move will be potentially vital for Ethereum if it wishes to avoid the issues of scalability that others (i.e. EOS) are looking to capitalise on.

We may have to get you to appear on an episode of Crypto Nights in the future!!

What do you think about Steem Media Tokens? :)

received an email about that yesterday, but haven't researched well enough yet! :)

Ivan,
I'm not a cryptocurrency expert. I hold some ETH on a Nano S. What do I need to do for the upcoming hard forks? hopefully nothing!

nothing in this case

Great video @Ivan. I'm chasing you on all your social, answering to your invitation to drop you an email to get a free ticket for the Nordic360 event in Stockholm. Pls Ivan, let me know if still any availability! Keep up with great work!

hey man! unfortunately there are none left:( hope to meet you at some event anyway!

For those of us holding Ethereum this will result in free money, just as we got through Bitcoin Cash, right?

No, in the video he explains. To have chain split, you need a big group of miners ho wants to go on with the old eth, and this should probably will not happend.

Ok, thanks for the info.
