Atlantis hard fork is jet streaming towards the upgradation of the Classic Geth Client. The ETC Labs are doing so in collaboration with key members that includes ECC, Parity, IOHK, and last but certainly not the least-the ETC community.
The latest take on the Atlantis hard fork project is that it has stepped into the test phase. The ETC Labs is on a lookout to fix any loopholes in the functions one of the hard fork during this test phase. The test phase has the hard fork’s original code mixed with the new one, so there might be some fine-tuning to be done, should there be any need of it. The ETC Labs announced about the launch of the Atlantis hard fork yesterday on the social platform- Medium.
What is the next step after the test phase?
As per the Medium blog, the ETC Labs is planning to implement the Atlantis after the successful completion of the testing phase. Here is an excerpt from the blog, regarding the implementation of the Atlantis-
[…] We intend to fulfill two key priorities: (1) develop high-quality blockchain software that preserves the security of the network and (2) consider the opinions and concerns of the community.
When can we see the Atlantis implemented?
