Huobi Global Will Support The Upcoming Bitcoin Cash (BCH) HardFork

Dear Users,

Bitcoin Cash is expected to perform a hard fork protocol upgrade at 20:00 on November 15, 2020 (UTC+8). As BCHN has an absolute advantage in computing power, Huobi Global will make the following arrangements according to the feedback from the community and users:

1、BCHN node will inherit the original name of BCH and the k-line and trading pairs. This may cause a large fluctuation due to the influence of market sentiment when the hard fork occurs. Please make corresponding precautions for risk control in advance.

2、After the hard fork is completed, Huobi Global will take BCH snapshots of the user's accounts and airdrop the new token to users. Huobi Global will also assess to open corresponding trading pairs in line with the opinions of the community.
