After running into roadblocks this morning, miners were able to successfully create a block on a new blockchain, called Bitcoin Cash, at roughly 2:14 p.m. ET today. As reported by CoinDesk, the move finds the miners breaking away from the main bitcoin network and forging ahead with an option supported by a different technical roadmap. The block in question was mined by mining firm ViaBTC, according to a Bitcoin Cash block explorer hosted by data provider BlockDozer. ViaBTC later acknowledged the finding on Twitter and WeChat. https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-cash-just-mined-first-block-making-blockchain-split-official/ |
