RE: Announcing the Launch of Hive Blockchain
Considering that this is just a straight fork of pre-existing code at first, I don't suspect they will have to make too many radical changes to things like KeyChain ( just some sexy new rebranding ). Steem-Engine, on the other hand, I'd love to know more about. Perhaps it's as easy as copying current chain-data & redistributing?
If SCOT tokens are entirely on-chain, then I would imagine it would all copy over as well, Steem Engine would just need to point to the new chain.
From what I understand, SCOT tokens are basically on their own "chain" ( I think it's actually just a database currently? ), but they get their data & value from transactions posted via Steem.
So, it should be "relatively" straightforward to port over to Hive ( I say relatively because of course it still be some work involved, don't wanna downplay the sleepless nights some devs are gonna have coming up lol )
No, the SCOT token transactions are all recorded on the Steem blockchain. They are processed by a different set of servers, though.
