What happened?

+

The planned upgrade of the eCash network has successfully been completed. The first post-upgrade block is block number 766195.

Who needs to upgrade?

All operators of a Bitcoin ABC full node must upgrade to the latest major version (0.26.x). This is available at our Releases page.

Exactly when will the upgrade activate?

-

In order to activate reliably at a predictable time, the network upgrade uses the "Median Time Past" mechanism. The upgrade activates when the median of the last 11 blocks reaches timestamp 1668513600 (12:00:00 UTC on Nov 15th, 2022). This means that the upgrade doesn't actually activate exactly at that time, but typically about one hour later, when 6 blocks with timestamps greater than the activation time have been produced.
