Steemit HardFork 20 Release Candidate 1 Is Out!
Just when I wrote I couldn't find any better news to start that weekend than the launch of the Steemit TestNet, I just realized the first release candidate of the 20 HardFork is out as well:
I can't wait to start fiddling with it (after I'll finish the upgrade of my backup server, that is, which will happen on Monday).
From where I stand, looks like this hardfork will be smoother than the last ones. The same thing I can say about the development process and the communication surrounding this process.
It may not show in the price of STEEM (yet), but the Steemit ecosystem is evolving in the right direction.

I know the feeling. That's why I created steem.supply, an easy to use and accurate tool for calculating your Steemit rewards |
We are getting a lot of info from you today...
Does this hard fork mean that something will fork out like golos did?
Nope, just some new features on the blockchain.
Okay, thanks.
When do you think it will be running on the main blockchain?
Release date is September 30th, if I remember correctly.
Looking forward to reading your long description post! :)
Thanks for sharing this great info @dragosroua
I'm still confused regarding this hardfork ... i'm trying not to compare it to hardforks like on btc or eth ... Learning, learning, learning :-)
Thanks for this blog @dragosroua
Looking forward for your infos
Regards
No, it's nothing like that.
It's just a way to add features to the platform, and some of the features require consensus modifications, that's why the codebase has to change consistently across the network (that's what a hardfork is: a change in the codebase accepted by all players)
Glad you have not quit Steemit.com in spite of its low price. I always read 📖 your updates and insights. Probably you are mi single source of steemit.com knowledge.
On my side I post once in a while, but not as last year. Today take 8 times hard to get what one got in December 2017.
But right now resembles the conditions when I got into steemit.com and planning to get on board of HF20 as soon as it launches.
And I do expect you continue to be the leading teacher
That's super nice news to hear from an independent developer.
Test net is good way of checking the improvements without influencing the real blockchain...
A one way channel to copy the blockchain...just like a mirror dimension.
Thanks for your information @dragosroua
