The native THORChain blockchain has been determined to undergo an important hard fork upgrade on September 5th, 2024. The upgrade is planned to commence at 00:00 UTC on September 5th, 2024, executing at block 17561740. To ensure the smooth execution and system stability of the upgrade, chain activities will be temporarily interrupted during this period, including but not limited to transaction sending, asset exchanges, etc. Validator nodes must coordinate with routine upgrade work during this time to ensure the network operates normally after the upgrade. Users should prepare adequately before the upgrade, avoiding critical operations within this timeframe. The THORChain team will continue to monitor the upgrade process and promptly provide updates to community members.
