Bytecoin Hardfork: Switch Height Announcement

Bytecoin network has finally decided on a switch height:

1629055

Considering that block time is around 120 seconds we can calculate an approximate time of it:

Monday, October 1, 2018, 7:11 PM GMT

After that point in time:

• the Bytecoin network will be ready to accept transactions with 0 fee;

• Bytecoin software versions prior to 3.3.0 would no longer be guaranteed to work correctly.

This network event is called the height switch.

What this means for our users:

• If you use Bytecoin Desktop with version 3.3.0, then you are fine and don’t need to do anything;

• If your funds are located on wallets and exchanges, consult the table below: 

What this does NOT mean:

• No doubling of coins;

• No changes to keys or addresses;

• No splits, blackouts, or downtimes.

Best regards,

The Bytecoin Team
