Please refer to quickstart if you wish to run your own node.
Blockchain explorer
Seven Chain Explorer is the official blockchain explorer for Seven Chain. With this full-featured, open-source explorer you can view transactions, accounts & balances, access data via the API, and read and verify smart contracts.
Major updates on the network level are introduced via forks.
Forks are used to introduce new functionality or fix security related issues. Node runners will receive instructions on how and when to update their nodes in the event of a fork.
Information related to forks along with upgrade information will be posted here. If any assistance is needed, feel free to reach out or ask questions through the forum or other channels.
Upgrade Guide
For Nodes, Bootnodes and Validator
This guide assumes that you have created your node via our quickstart script. If you have built you own client using our spec then ensure that your client matches the official supported client and you use the most up to date chain spec.
Prerequisites
The update will pull the latest database from our latest snapshot so please ensure that you have at least 20GB disk space free before starting.
Step 1 - CD to the location of quickstart.sh and update quickstart
Step 2 - Run quickstart and agree to upgrade
Step 3 - Verify Upgrade
Check your node on our health site It should be online and the client should be "OpenEthereum//v3.2.6-stable", ensure your node is connected to peers and syncing/ in sync.

Upgrade Guide (explorer nodes)
This guide is intended specifically for explorer nodes.Since we don't host snapshots for explorer DBs, some extra steps are required in order to update from V1.0.0 to V2.0.0.
Step 1 - Stop all running containers
sudo docker stop $(sudo docker ps -q)
Step 2 - Pull the latest quickstart script
cd <to quickstart.sh location>wget -O quickstart.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MedifaktDev/Medifakt/master/scripts/quickstart.sh
Step 3 - Upgrade your DB using OEs upgrade tool
It is highly recommended to take a back up of your database folder before attempting!.Follow the instruction here to upgrade from V13->V16 DBs https://github.com/openethereum/3.1-db-upgrade-tool. The data base is stored in <path to quickstart.sh>/fusenet/database/FuseNetwork/db/dee77c98f8210dbb/archive
Step 4 - Update Client version in env file and rerun quickstart
vim .envAdd the following (without quotes) "CLIENT=OE"Save and exit :w :qsudo ./quickstart.sh
Step 5 - Verify Upgrade
Check your node on our health site It should be online and the client should be "OpenEthereum//v3.2.6-stable", ensure your node is connected to peers and syncing/ in sync.
FIP stands for Seven chain Improvement Proposal. A FIP is a design document providing information to the Seven chain community, or describing a new feature for Seven chain. The FIP should provide motivation and technical specification for the feature.
