Important note about the upcoming Merge in Ethereum - published on 18 August 2022
The smart contracts of the stablecoin XCHF will remain operational on the Ethereum blockchain after the “Merge” to the Proof-of-Stake consensus protocol. Users should be aware that Bitcoin Suisse Ltd, as the issuer of XCHF, will only consider the Proof-of-Stake forked version of the Ethereum blockchain to be legally binding under the Token Terms as published on its website. XCHF smart contracts may be 'paused' on other chains, including Proof-of-Work forked chains, in which case no transactions could be made any more on those chains. Users are advised to temporarily abstain from using the XCHF smart contracts during the period around the Merge to avoid increased risk associated with the transition to the Proof-of-Stake consensus protocol. No action is required to upgrade on the part of users. Users should be on high alert for scams trying to take advantage of them during the transition. Furthermore, Bitcoin Suisse Ltd will not technically support the XCHF smart contracts on chains other than the Proof-of-Stake forked version of the Ethereum blockchain.
