HOdlcoin Has Successfully Hardforked and is Properly Mineable Again

Following the announcement from earlier this month about an upcoming HODL hardfork, the coin has successfully hardforked at block 257000 and is now an interesting option for miners. Do note however that HOdlcoin (HODL) can be mined only with a processor, so this coin is for CPU miners. Prior to this hardfork all mined coins were automatically locked in a deposit for 1 year and you had to wait for that period to finis in order to get access to them, but after the successful hardfork you can mine and not have the coins automatically deposited for a year anymore. All previously mined coins prior the hardfork will still be locked for 1 year deposit, before they become available for use, so only new coins that you can mine now will be available immediately!

If you want to have a local HODL wallet make sure you have the latest one – HOdlcoin Core wallet version 3.0. There is only one HOdlcoin Mining Pool available for now, the fastest CPU miner for the coin is the Hodlminer Optimized Optiminer fork that you can use to mine on the pool. You can also use the built-in solo mining functionality of the wallet, but with the high network hashrate this might not be the best idea. HOdlcoin is currently being traded on Coinexchange, though if it manages to earn back enough interest from miners and users it might appear on other exchanges soon.
