The Bitcoin Cash (BCH) blockchain will hard fork and after 4:40 PM GMT (12:40 AM CST) on November 15th. At this time CoinLion will support the ABC chain.

Please stop any deposits or withdraw activity from Bitcoin Cash wallets prior to the fork.

CoinLion will disable bch deposits and withdrawals for a period around the hard fork.

All BCH on the platform will not be affected.

What is the Hardfork?

Bitcoin cash goes through upgrades to improve the protocol. Many times these upgrades go unnoticed by users.

However the fork on the 15th is what is known as a “hard fork”. The BCH community was not able to agree on the path BCH should take and will be forking into two chains.

· ABC fork includes non-backwards compatible protocol upgrades.

· SV fork will restore more legacy operation codes and will increase the maximum block size

CoinLion works with Bitgo to secure and store digital assets. BitGo custody and wallets will support ABC.
