ETHW Core: An open letter to the Ethereum community [3/9]: Mainnet Launch and ETHW Mining Pool

It seems that the Ethereum Foundation will not slow down moving to PoS, so it’s time to talk about ETHW, the PoW chain, which is the backbone that the Web3 is currently built upon.
1/n
Full Node Data and Synchronization
You should not try to synchronize full node data by yourself, it takes about 7 days. The Core had prepared a BitTorrent download link to the snapshot for you 48 hours before the Merge,

2/n
the snapshot is about 1.1TB and should be downloaded in 3–5 hours for a normal miner and exchange network (depending on your network), please follow our Twitter @EthereumPoW or the official GitHub account of ETHW github.com/ethereumpow for any updates.

About ETH nodes and sync modes.
Just basic info, nothing special with ETHW.
To run an ETHW node, refer to

1/n
Full node
Stores full blockchain data (although this is periodically pruned so a full node does not store all state data back to genesis)
Participates in block validation, verifies all blocks and states.

2/n
All states can be derived from a full node (although very old states are reconstructed from requests made to archive nodes).
Serves the network and provides data on request.

ETHW Core Announced the Plan for Mainnet

#ethereum #ethw #ethereummerge #ethereumfork $ethw $eth #ethpow

1/n
ETHW mainnet will happen within 24 hours after the Merge. The exact time will be announced 1 hour before launch with a countdown timer and everything including final code, binaries, config files, nodes info, RPC, explorer, etc. will be made public when the time’s up.

2/n
The mainnet will start at the block height of the Merge block “plus” 2048 EMPTY blocks as padding to make sure that the chainID switches to 10001 successfully and the chain is the longest chain of ETHW.

About Chain ID, EIP155, and replay attack -

EIP-155 eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-155

The hard fork that EIP-155 was implemented - blog.ethereum.org/2016/11/18/har…

EIP-3788 - eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-3788

1/n
EIP-155 provides a way to send transactions that work on Ethereum without working on ETC or the Morden testnet.

2/n
EIP 155 is backwards compatible, so transactions generated with the "pre-Spurious-Dragon" format will still be accepted. However, to ensure you are protected against replay attacks, you will still need to use a wallet solution that implements EIP 155.
