@cikxaijen what types of posts might you be interested in reading about cryptos?
Feel free to ask me any questions right now if you have any :)
I'm having hard time understanding about fork. I need it in layman's term
Usually the expectation with a hard fork is that one side of the split chain will become dominant and the other will die off or possibly live on as a cheap alt coin. The risk is this might end up in two incompatible currencies that both think they are the original coin. A hard fork requires all nodes to upgrade and agree on the new version while on the other hand a soft fork requires only a majority of the miners upgrading to enforce the new rules.
