( A screencap showing a commit to the STEEM code adding the Hardfork 19 date - github )
Excited to announce that it looks like the date set for Hardfork 19 has been set! The boys over at Steemit Inc have been busy getting the next version of the software ready to go and it looks like we're set to upgrade the networks software in a weeks time!
While I'm not 100% sure yet this will be the date it looks pretty promising given the commit pictured above. Hopefully this commit is accepted and we get new software running!
Assuming majority of witnesses switch their operating version of steemd
to version 19 by the 20th of this month we'll be seeing a change in voting curve on the network. The flattening of the reward curve is something a large number of users and witnesses seem to back up.
Personally I'm going to start rolling out HF19 on my servers running STEEM wallets a bit later today and overnight. A bit of a process when you have more than a handful of servers to update but none the less I'm excited to see the STEEM network move forwards with updates.
