Last year we were actively following the development of the HOdlcoin (HODL) project up until there was a hardfork that essentially killed our interest in the coin. The Hardfork to version 2.0 introduced the rule that all new mined coins will automatically be staked for 1 year and also made obsolete the need of mining pools. As a result not only we lost interest, but many users that deemed the project interesting also did and from there on things pretty much started moving on a downwards spiral. Fortunately recently there was a decision for a new hardfork in order to bring back the regular mining as it was before the weird decision from the previous hardfork.

In order to get ready for the upcoming hardfork you need to upgrade to the latest HOdlcoin Core wallet version 3.0 before the network reaches a block height of 257000 when the hardfork will be activated. There is still some time left before the hardfork as the current block is 244607 and you can track how things progress via the official HODL blockchain explorer. The new wallet comes with some long awaited improvements such as tables sorting of the deposits, improved mining performance and some bugfixes.

Up until recently HOdlcoin (HODL) was only traded on the Yobit Exchange, though after the announcement for the upcoming hardfork there is a new altcoin exchange on board as well – Coinexchange. There is still only one HOdlcoin Mining Pool available by Optiminer, though we might be seeing some more getting back on board after the hardfork. The latest best performing miner for HODL is the Hodlminer Optimized Optiminer fork that you can use to mine on the only available pool. Do note that before the hardfork hits all mined coins (solo or on the pool) will still be held for a 1 year term deposit in your wallet before becoming available.

The big question now is what is hodl tokens / khrif stock and can it recover and bring back sufficient user interest after the hardfork including miners. Currently the available hashrate on the Optiminer mining pool is about 20000 H/s with just about 35 miners. The biggest problem in bringing back user interest lies in the concept that the coin initially had with high interest rates on deposits and bonuses as these are already pretty low compared to the levels they were at last year. Still we are going to be keeping an eye on HODL to see how things will develop after the hardfork…
