Binance Coin to Undergo Testnet Hard Fork on March 27th
The BNB Greenfield blockchain, built on BNB Coin, is preparing for the Pawnee hardfork.
The testnet hardfork is scheduled for block 6,623,127, approximately on March 27th, 7:00 UTC. The mainnet hardfork will take place on block 6,239,529, around April 10th, 7:00 UTC.
What is a hardfork?
The cryptocurrency mainnet operates according to certain rules. To improve network performance or correct errors, changes are periodically introduced into it. A hard fork represents changes that are not compatible with previous versions of software supporting the cryptocurrency network. In order to continue to mine the cryptocurrency, miners need to update the software.
In some cases, as a result of a hard fork, a completely new cryptocurrency may appear, as happened with Bitcoin Cash and EthereumPoW.
