Bitcoin Cash BCH: Hard Fork
On 15th May, the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) network will be upgraded.
This hard fork will result in the introduction of an optional new way to sign your BCH transactions called Schnorr signatures.
Event date: May 15, 2019 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.
