# Nakamoto Activation Guide for Signers

-Binaries will be provided roughly a week in advance and your normal upgrade procedure should apply here, you’ll want to be running the latest node and Signer software. Note that if you do not upgrade ahead of the hard fork, your nodes will be dropped from the network. Ideally, you will have Stacked for Cycle #94 ahead of time, any time now is good.

The rollout will follow this two-step process, each of which is implemented via hard fork.
1. **Step 1 - Instantiation:** The pox-4 contract and the majority of the Nakamoto code are shipped, but Nakamoto rules are inactive. This is so other aspects of the contract can be tested before layering on the complexity that comes with the testnet (and later mainnet) being dependent on it. Importantly, this phase also allows time for Signers to register without the network being dependent on them to sign blocks.
-2. **Step 2 - Activation:** A process to make Nakamoto rules live begins on August 28. Once completely rolled out, the full set of Nakamoto features including Signer-based functions, fast blocks, and Bitcoin finality. In other words, ‘the switch is flipped’!

It’s important to note the heaviest lift of any hard fork is historically the sync from genesis. With the two Nakamoto forks, one goal is not to require this, making the upgrade more akin to a push-button software update and much simpler for all node operators.

### Nakamoto Activation Sequence
-
| Step | Overview | Date/Period |
---|
✅ A, B | Activation Window Opens & Binaries Delivered | Pending no new bugs, final binaries are delivered - this is all the code Signers, Miners, and Node Operators need to run the network. | Aug 28th |
✅ C | Cycle Handoff - Signers | At the end of Cycle 92, core developers will watch for a successful ‘handoff’, meaning a successful change of the Signer sets between Stacking cycles. | Cycle 92 to Cycle 93 |
✅ D | First Testnet Hard Fork | Core developers performed a successful testnet hardfork (on Nakamoto testnet). | Sept 27 |
E | Determine Hard Fork Block | Core developers will select a mainnet hard fork block after performing a final testnet hardfork. | ~October 10 |
F | Epoch 3.0 - Nakamoto Rules Start | Fast blocks, full Bitcoin finality! Nakamoto rules go live on mainnet at hard fork block. | Hard Fork Block |
