Will this result in a new coin? If so... How can we get it?
I heard about this news about the new ethereum hardfork that will going to happen in the next year january 2019. It will be a new coin which is called serenity, but it is the ethereum 2.0. They said that it will be 1000x way more better compared to ethereum nowadays.
