🧵 What to Expect from a Kadena Fork 👇 The original org is gone. Binance is delisting. But the chain still breathes and a community fork might be the only way forward. Here’s what happens next, and what it takes to keep Kadena alive ⚒️

1️⃣1️⃣ TL;DR A community led fork isn’t chaos, it’s decentralization taking back the wheel. If miners, devs, and exchanges cooperate long enough to launch a foundation, Kadena survives stronger and fairer than before. The code still works. Now it’s the people’s chain. ⚒️

🔟 Long-Term Vision If the fork gains consensus: • Emissions and rewards become transparent • DAO + Foundation control funding • Developers and miners rebuild under open governance It’s not the end of Kadena. It’s Kadena truly decentralized by necessity.

9️⃣ What to Expect Short-Term ⚙️ Chain split ⚒️ Temporary volatility in hashrate 💸 Wallet upgrades 📊 Reindexed block explorers 🤝 DAO votes for governance structure It’ll look messy before it looks stable. It’s the norm with a chain reboot.

8️⃣ Foundation Formation Once the fork stabilizes, the next move is legal structure: A Foundation (nonprofit) to manage treasury, emissions, and grants transparently. Think of it as the bridge between miners, devs, and token holders. The anchors that turns chaos into governance.

7️⃣ Developer Continuity The most respected Pact devs will likely lead the technical reboot. Expect early proposals for: • Core repo custody • Compiler updates • New community roadmap If done right, this becomes a decentralized rebrand, not a collapse.

6️⃣ Core Infrastructure Survival requires more than miners, it needs the ecosystem: • Block explorers • Wallet support • Smart contract tooling for Pact • Chainweb sync services These must be reconfigured to follow the new fork’s network ID.

5️⃣ The Fork Mechanics Expect a snapshot based fork: • Block height chosen • Wallet balances mirrored • New genesis file • Exchanges + miners pointed to new chain Devs will need to recompile nodes with updated params, emissions curve, chain IDs, and chainweb tweaks.

4️⃣ Governance & Treasury A DAO or multi-sig council will likely manage emissions up front. Their job: • Secure control of remaining reserves • Fund infrastructure • Publish transparent ledgers Everything must be open-source to rebuild trust.

3️⃣ Exchanges & Liquidity Once Binance delists, liquidity relies on mid-tier and DEXs . The forked chain will need to: • Rebrand • Partner with community run exchanges • Launch liquidity Liquidity will fragment until listings catch up.

2️⃣ Mining & Hashrate Kadena’s PoW depends on hashrate distribution. If miners stay, the chain lives. If they leave, block times spike and the network stalls. 👉 Expect a forked chain to realign incentives with adjusted block rewards or emissions schedule to attract miners back.

1️⃣ Phase 1 — Survival Mode Without a central team, the network keeps running as long as miners do. The first step in any fork: protect the chain’s integrity and emissions. That means coordination between: • Miners • Node operators • Core devs • Exchanges

The silence, the delay, the absence of any transition. None of it feels accidental. It feels like the founders chose an ending instead of a legacy. ⚒️

The hardest part to accept is that this didn’t need to happen. A simple transition plan could’ve saved years of work. Instead, the founders left a vacuum and Binance wrote the epilogue.

The revolution doesn’t need pitchforks, it needs pull requests. Give Pascal the code, Amir the technical helm, and let the community build the rest. 🧠⚙️ #thebrothersdao

11. TL;DR If the foundation is real, transparent, and technically competent, Kadena survives. If it’s optics only, the community will fork and move on. The next few hours to weeks decide which it is. ⚒️

10. Why This Path Matters This is the only scenario that keeps Kadena alive without rewriting history. It turns a closed corporate system into an open governance network that can evolve on its own.

9. The Middle Ground Partial success is still possible if funding flows, DAO voting works, and devs stay active. Kadena can slowly rebuild legitimacy.

8. Worst-Case Outcome Keys never fully handed over. The new structure exists only on paper. Miners drift away. Developers stop updating. The network becomes ghost infrastructure.

7. Best-Case Outcome A working foundation + CTO & DAO restores trust, funds developers, and relaunches Kadena as a fully decentralized PoW network. Kadena 2.0. community first & verified
