Only 2 Node Projects are Ready for the Upgrade Coming in Just Over 2 Weeks? Are we heading for a big fork?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/btc

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • cashtokens

    A proposal to enable two new primitives on Bitcoin Cash: fungible tokens and non-fungible tokens.

  • I only this month spun up my own node for the first time so I can do some experiments & development. I chose BCHD. Now I see that only 2 nodes seem to really be ready for the upgrade according to this. Although at this page, it seems that more nodes have committed to supporting the upgrade, though I don't know if they actually have released yet. What's going on with this?

  • kth

    High performance Bitcoin development platform

  • Knuth supports it since 0.32: https://github.com/k-nuth/kth/releases/tag/v0.32.0

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • bitcoin-cash-node

    This is a mirror of the official Bitcoin Cash Node repository. Please see README.md https://gitlab.com/bitcoin-cash-node/bitcoin-cash-node

  • BCHN supports it since v0.25: https://github.com/bitcoin-cash-node/bitcoin-cash-node/releases/tag/v25.0.0

  • bitcoin-verde

    Bitcoin Verde is a Java full-node implementation of the Bitcoin Cash protocol. Fully indexed, Bitcoin Verde is a unique, from the ground-up, implementation. Bitcoin Verde provides a block explorer, development library, and network implementation diversification.

  • AFAIK Verde has been releasing this for months now. (git).

  • Fulcrum

    A fast & nimble SPV Server for BCH, BTC, and LTC (by cculianu)

  • How will you be using the node? FYI for a lot of use cases, an SPV friendly indexer like Fulcrum (high performance version of Electrum) will work, for example through the JS library Electrum Cash. There is also the massively powerful but also heavy ChainGraph. There is also Bitcoin Verde node which uses a SQL database for storage which is nice if you want that. Etc. But yeah, sucks about BCHD for now.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
