ATTENTION ETHEREUM CLASSIC NODE OPERATORS AND MINERS:
The Ethereum Basic improve, codenamed SPIRAL, will happen on block 19,250,000. The estimated date for SPIRAL is January 31, 2024.
Ethereum Basic core builders have posted ECIP-1109, which offers data for the SPIRAL onerous fork of ETC.

Buyer helps the SPIRAL onerous fork
The following consumer launch will embrace SPIRAL help. All node operators are inspired to improve as quickly as potential.
– Core-geth v1.12.17 or greater.
Communication
