► Bitcoin Cash Upgrade Complete: 2 New Protocol Changes Added
The Bitcoin Cash network has successfully upgraded the latest ruleset changes to the protocol. The BCH blockchain now features the enforcement of minimal pushdata in the script, which will make a majority of BCH network transactions non-malleable. Moreover, as an extension to last May’s Schnorr upgrade, the opcode OP_Checkmultisig(verify) will now feature Schnorr signature support.

►Smart card developed for Bitcoin Cash payments
Using “NFC”, which stands for “Near Field Communication”, the smart card provides signatures for transactions that can then be broadcast to the Bitcoin Cash network by the other device, which can be a cheap, widely available android smartphone.
