One of the main motivations why numerous individuals don't need the square size to increment is a direct result of the forking quandary. To be more exact, a square size increment will prompt a hard fork. Try not to stress, we will disclose to you what "hard fork" and "delicate fork" implies. Be that as it may, before that how about we comprehend what a "fork" with regards to blockchain implies.

A fork is a condition whereby the condition of the blockchain veers into chains where a piece of the system has an alternate point of view on the historical backdrop of exchanges than an alternate piece of the system. That is fundamentally what a fork is, it is a uniqueness in the point of view of the condition of the blockchain.

As we have talked about previously, there are two sorts of forks:

Delicate Fork.

Hard Fork.

What Is A Soft Fork?

At whatever point a fasten should be refreshed there are two different ways of doing that: a delicate fork or a hard fork. Consider delicate fork as a refresh in the product which is in reverse good.
