According to PANews, BRC-100 founder Mikael announced on X that BRC-20 will undergo a fork. All pre-fork assets can now be checked on the official BRC-100 index at https://inbrc.org/prefork. Users will be able to access all BRC-20 assets within the BRC-100 protocol. Forked assets such as ORDI, SATS, RATS, and PIZZA can be utilized through BRC-100's decentralized exchange (DEX), stablecoins, lending, and other DeFi applications, ushering in a secure and decentralized Bitcoin DeFi era.

The BRC-100 fork aims to address the current limitations of BRC-20, which include a lack of programmability, non-Turing completeness, scalability issues, and a lack of DeFi capabilities. The official fork is scheduled for September 2, with the goal of reactivating BRC-20 and accelerating the development of the Bitcoin ecosystem.
