Title: Why some old clients follow hard-fork chain? Post by: amaclin1 on August 09, 2017, 06:29:54 AM Let us take https://bitnodes.21.co/nodes/?q=Bitcoin+XT
or even https://bitnodes.21.co/nodes/?q=%2FBitcoin+XT%3A0.11.0G You see some nodes have blockheight 478*** - they are on hard-fork chain Some others are on mainchain and their node height is 479*** The client is old enough - it does not know anything about bcc-fork Why these nodes with blockheight 478*** are not synced? UPD: ok, I see that some of them have NODE_CASH flags set and some do not have. Title: Re: Why some old clients follow hard-fork chain?
