<p>I don't know ,if you created the coin ,it will be very easy for u to extend the pos margin block area(those pow blocks:>)You not only need to differ the blocks when CreateNewBlock by nBestBlockHeight but also need to do some modifies in "getblock" message blocktype checking.

<p>Im trying to learn how is it possible to Hard Fork an Altcoin Blockchain to Continue the Mining Phase after the LAST POW BLOCK. The Block Reward is already 0 and the LAST POW stops at Block 8000. And want to know if there is a way to continue the mining after the 8000 without any SYNC Problem and Stuck Problem.</p>

What have you tried so far? How much C++ experience do you have? Can you build the altcoin you're modifying?

The Coin is already built working without any issue. The only thing is I want to extend the POW after the LAST BLOCK 8000. And then I will be updating the nodes. My experience in C++ is Medium but I totally understand how the Blockchain works and how to compile the Wallets (Win, Mac and Linux). Thanks!

Did you create this altcoin? Is PoW stopping at block 8000 because of a bug, or because of an intentional limitation?

Yes! I created it myself. It is a POW/POS Coin with all the coin mined on the first block and then 0 reward until LAST BLOCK 8000 and it stays full POS ... BUT I dont want that for NOW ...I want to extend the POW 0 reward block

I don't understand. If all the coins are premined why is there ever a need for POW reward?

To keep the Blockchain running! If no POW, Blockchain will get stuck because of the Limited amount of coins.

I don't know ,if you created the coin ,it will be very easy for u to extend the pos margin block area(those pow blocks:>)You not only need to differ the blocks when CreateNewBlock by nBestBlockHeight but also need to do some modifies in "getblock" message blocktype checking.

This enable again pow blocks even if the last pow block is hit.
