Title: SoftFok doubt Post by: Mundo Blockchain on May 31, 2018, 05:22:29 PM I'm start to learn about blockchain and crypto and started a private project.
so i have a doubt, how can i soft fork it on block X (to ajust reward for example) im using CN-heavy algo did i need to recompile daemon on seed nodes ?

Bitcoin Cash is a Hard Fork, a valid example of a Soft Fork is SegWit which has some software changes that didn't required a new chain upon its implementation.I can't further help the OP with this, because I'm not well informed (for now) to the "technical side" of Soft-forks/Hard-forks as well, but this link may help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SegWit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SegWit) Title: Re: SoftFok doubt Post by: bob123 on June 01, 2018, 09:04:21 AM I'm start to learn about blockchain and crypto and started a private project. so i have a doubt, how can i soft fork it on block X (to ajust reward for example) You do have to update the nodes software to behave the way you want to after block X has been reached. Note that you can't adjust the reward in a soft fork. This would require a hard fork. A soft fork is defined by being backwards compatible. New blocks from updated nodes still have to be valid for non-updated nodes. |
