PolkaBTC Beta Testnet— Scheduled maintenance, 25 March 3pm GMT

Dear PolkaBTC user,

if you have been testing https://beta.polkabtc.io/, thanks a lot! We have received a ton of feedback and as a result we are doing a major runtime upgrade tomorrow at 25 March 3pm GMT. As part of this, we will temporarily stop all our validators and thus the chain will not produce any blocks. We expect the downtime to last 4 hours but will have updates ready on Discord when the chain is live again.

What this means for you if you are having PolkaBTC

We will migrate all data. Your PolkaBTC and DOT balances will be unaffected by this and there is nothing that you need to do.

What this means for you if you are running a Vault and/or Relayer Client

We will have an upgrade to version 0.6.x available tomorrow (25 March). You will need to update your clients accordingly. The docs (https://docs.polkabtc.io/) will be updated tomorrow as well.

Thanks for testing!
