GridCoin GRC: Hard Fork

The hard fork is set at block 1,420,000. This is approximately 20 days from now. We expect the hard fork to occur on either November 7th or 8th. Please update before then!

The cryptocurrency mainnet operates according to certain rules. To improve network performance or correct errors, it is periodically made changes. A hard fork is changes that are not compatible with previous versions of programs that support the cryptocurrency network and in order to continue to mine cryptocurrency, miners need to update the software.

In some situations, as a result of a hard fork, a completely new cryptocurrency may appear, as happened with Bitcoin Cash.
