Guys, this project is not a hard fork? Hello, I think this is not a hard fork, at least from the technical side what then means a "hard fork" In simple terms: A hard fork is when a single cryptocurrency splits in two Is SATO-project not suitable for this definition?

No, it's different. I need time to give you the correct answer Sorry.

no problem. If you give a good answer, I'm ready to wait It occurs when a cryptocurrency’s existing code is changed, resulting in both an old and new version. Meanwhile, a soft fork is essentially the same thing, but the idea is that only one blockchain (and thus one coin) will remain valid as users adopt the update. So both fork types create a split, but a hard fork is meant to create two blockchain/coins, and a soft fork is meant to result in one.

Do you want to say that the SATO coin is a completely different code?

Guys, you have an interesting discussion. And I have question too. Can anyone fork a coin?

Anyone can go to GitHub, grab the code of a coin (for example Bitcoin), and then do the development work needed to update the software. However, not anyone can get enough miners to mine the new coin, enough users to update their software or download wallets for the coin, and/or enough exchanges to list it.

I think it just wants to help the team to know how big the community cares about this project, it does not matter, the most important is when this idea succeeds the community also can keep this idea stay favored

In practice, forks of all sorts require some form of consensus building to be effective. Even ones that are effective tend to have a lower valuation than the original coin. One of the only exceptions I can think of is Ether vs. Ethereum classic (where Ether, the hard fork, has a higher valuation and more users / miners).

That is obviously an absurdly good deal (although one risks the original asset’s price dropping in “split” events like this).
