BCH users will no longer be at risks of sending money to segwit addresses. Zero knowledge proofs can be added by extension blocks.
Exchanges and services have already begun to signal that they are going to update their software to be ready for Change the Address Day.
The more exchanges, wallets and payment processors in the ecosystem switch to cashaddr formatted addresses on January 14, the easier the switch will be for users, newbies and all businesses in the space.
Together we can make the BCH ecosystem an ecosystem that shines professionalism with a smooth upgrade that will make even the most hardened BCH hater jealous.
Below are some of the exchanges that we've heard from in the last 24 hours. I will keep this space updated.
Please contact exchanges and wallets that you use to ask them to support cashaddr formatted BCH addresses this Jan. 14!
