SIACOIN SC NEWS ALLERT!!

there is no new coin associated with this uncontentious hard fork. There are two types of hard forks: contentious and uncontentious. A contentious fork (not this) is created when a development team forces the fork and pledges to back the older blockchain thus creating a newer coin for the newer fork. An uncontentious hardfork happens when the programming code updates and there is no development team willing to take on and back the old pre-forked blockhcain thus there is no need for a new coin representing the newer fork.
