Bitcoin (BTC) Segwit 2x Hardfork
What is a hardfork?
A hardfork is simply a chain split, whereby Bitcoin’s (BTC) main chain will be split to create a new chain, Bitcoin Origin.
Bitcoin’s (BTC) main chain will remain unaltered, where as the newly created chain will be updated with protocol changes.
These new rules will be enforced by the miners that join and secure the new Bitcoin Origin chain.
Why?
We believe that Bitcoin Origin will help evolve the current Bitcoin project with much needed changes to keep the chain alive and secure.
We propose changes that will not be implemented by Bitcoin (BTC) in the forceable future, which marks our decision to split from Bitcoin’s (BTC) chain.
It is very important that governance is maintained by the votes of the people.
With our proposal, we hope that the project gains support and a positive outlook on decentralized democracy./size]
When?
The proposed hardfork will take place on the 1st of September 2018, around 3 PM UTC.
Details on the specific fork block will be released nearer the time.
