The Bitcoin Cash community has been waiting patiently for weeks for the November 15, 2020 upgrade and finally the day is here. The Bitcoin Cash Network is upgraded every six months, but at the moment, there is controversy over Bitcoin ABC’s Infrastructure Funding Plan (IFP). During the day, the following editorial will monitor Bitcoin Cash upgrades in real-time to keep our readers up to date.
** Last Updated 10:44 am EST **
On November 15, 2020 at 12:00 noon, the Bitcoin Cash schedule was upgraded. Bitcoin cash developers from various full node projects have changed the Difference Adjustment Algorithm (DAA) to a new DAA called ‘Asserti 3-2D’ (or ASERT for short).
Details of the ASERT 3-2D Github description that people can get a “high level description of inspiration and background” for ASERT by reading the programmer Jonathan Tomim’s read.kosh article. Specifications for ASERT Bitcoin Cash Upgrade Specifications can be read here on the web portal.
As always, Bitcoin Cash supporters saw the upgrade in real-time, taking advantage of the web portal Coin Dance. The website maintains a countdown clock for upgrades, information and displays three complete nodes software software clients in three complete sections. Additionally, a fork monitor powered by the Derivatives Exchange Bitmax also monitors the fork.
The data shown on Coin Dance includes Bitcoin Unlimited, Bitcoin Cash Node (BCHN) and Bitcoin ABC of full node clients. Coin Dance Statistics says that BCH Unlimited 1.9.0.1 will follow the longest chain. The Bitcoin Cash Node (BCHN) 22.1.0 will follow the longest chain, unless the 10-block reorganization is violated. Bitcoin will follow the ABC 0.22.4 chain that adheres to the Infrastructure Funding Plan (IFP).
Because Bitcoin is stuck in the implementation of ABC IFP, it expects to create two incompatible networks. Each full node client, except for the IFP version of ABC, will agree to the same rules. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) users should see a smooth transition, but if the miner introduces the controversial IFP mechanism they decide to eat the ABC software they will see an airpropped coin.
At approximately 6:55 EST, a 661,641 upgrade was initiated at the height of the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) block. Block 1 follows 661,111, requiring six more blocks to be upgraded to go live on the network. The last bitcoin cash common block was at 661,647 and was mined by Binans.
The live stream crypto show hosted by Colin Enstad will air live today, November 15 Mike Komransky And the show will be covering YouTube all day with a number of special guests.

During the morning hours before the fork activation, the crypto trading exchange Connex changed the futures market from BCHN and BCHA to BCH and BCHA to represent the split. At the time of release, the spot price for Bitcoin Cash (BCH) on Koikex is 24 3,243 per unit, while ABC’s airdrop token is 15 15.82 per unit. ABC Aerodrop Dollar USTT on Polonics. The pair is trading at $ 14 per unit, and ABC 11 per unit on CoinFlex. Trading in 11th.
Software Software Developer Christ Trust Announced The website hosting the Alpha web-based tool on Splitting Tool and SplitBeach.com will be available after the upgrade. Trout also released a demo of the SplitTub Splitting tool on YouTube. So far, however, EST at 10:37 a.m., has not seen a single mind block on the ABC side of the fork.
By 10:10 am EST, ten blocks have been mined under the new Bitcoin Cash Consensus Rules. There have been zero bitcoin ABC blocks since the fork started after the last normal block.
So far, the coin-splitting token for the ABC-IFP side does not seem to indicate that the chain has zero efficiency. (10:37 am EST). Twelve BCH blocks have been mined at this time under the new consensus rules. Without any splitting, it means that BCH just upgraded and dropped the node by consent. The ABC-IFP side will have to create a valid barrier to continue as a viable chain.
