The result can be + seen in the CAs being created (or re-created) after the fork. The + hard-fork also added smart contracts enhancements allowing them to verify + fork heights (to support fork-dependent features). On the wallet side, + DApp support for the BANS (Beam Anonymous Name System) was improved. + link: https://medium.com/beam-mw/beam-hard-fork-announcement-3e999dfba178 + time: Fri Sep 02 2022 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit) + - title: Fourth Hard-Fork (and wallet v7.0) + description: This hard-fork introduced 'High-Frequency Transactions' (HFTX) on + both node and wallet sides, and IPFS storage integration on the wallet + side. HFTX improve resistance to MEV, front-running and sandwich attacks + by defining strict inclusion rules for transactions, thus protecting users + from unwanted outcomes (as the submitted transactions can only be included + into a block in their exact specific sequence). On the wallet side, the + IPFS integration allows storing data (such as NFTs) efficiently in a + decentralized manner while reducing blockchain bloat. Thus, every Beam + wallet today is at the same time a blockchain node (to submit transactions + and verify blocks), an SBBS node (to allow secure communication between + wallets), and an IPFS node (to allow decentralized storage, including for + DApp front ends distribution). This Hard Fork went smoothly and the + difficulty remained fairly stable. + link: https://medium.com/beam-mw/beam-hard-fork-completed-903ce2b15b51 + time: Fri Jun 24 2022 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit) + - title: Third Hard-Fork (and wallet v6.0) + description: "This hard-fork brought the addition of the Beam Virtual Machine + (BVM) as an infrastructure to create Smart Contracts (a.k.a. 'Shaders'), + thus making Beam the first privacy coin with smart contracts capabilities! + BVM smart contracts can be written in any WebAssembly compatible language + (such as C++, Rust, Go, etc.) and are composed of two elements: the + blockchain side (running on Beam nodes) and the wallet side (running in + Beam wallet, together with the DApp front ends). This separation of + chain-side and client-side logics allows very powerful and flexible + applications. Beam smart contracts are transparent by default, which means + that we can see their state and their activity. Nevertheless, the users + remain anonymous, as their interactions with the smart contracts are based + on normal confidential Beam transactions. With this approach, Beam's DeFi + manages to provide 'efficient' markets (e.g. where we can see what is + bought and sold) while still protecting its users' privacy (e.g. we cannot + see who buys and sells!). By allowing such privacy-preserving smart + contract capabilities, this hard-fork opened the doors to Beam becoming + not only a powerful 'Privacy DeFi' (PriFi) platform but indeed a + general-purpose infrastructure for anything in Confidential Web3!" + link: https://medium.com/beam-mw/hard-fork-completed-1608eb5ce439 + time: Sun Jun 13 2021 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit) + - title: Second Hard-Fork + description: Beam's second hard-fork was performed as announced in the roadmap. + The PoW algorithm was updated from BeamHash II to BeamHash III, which is + the final version in the planned strategy to balance GPU and ASIC mining. + This hard-fork also saw the activation of the Confidential Assets + (sometimes also called 'Privacy Tokens', and which were introduced in the + first hard-fork but kept inactive) and the release of the Lelantus-MW + protocol and its associated one-side payments (also known as offline + transactions). + link: https://medium.com/beam-mw/hard-fork-completed-72e8f1edb10b + time: Sun Jun 28 2020 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit) + - title: First Hard-Fork + description: Beam's first hard-fork was performed as announced in the roadmap. + The PoW algorithm was updated from BeamHash I to BeamHash II, which are + upgrades from the vanilla Equihash on which they are based. Beam's + strategy with these planned changes of the mining algorithm was to give + GPU miners a head start, and then allow cheap ASICs to join in without + disrupting the mining ecosystem. After this hard-fork, a drop in + difficulty was observed as not all miners performed a timely upgrade. + However, after less than 24 hours, the hashrate had gone back to its + pre-fork value. + link: https://medium.com/beam-mw/mimblewimble-hard-fork-first-completed-1171f9642e51 + time: Thu Aug 15 2019 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit)
