Kumquat: The First-Ever Fork on Citrea
Forks allow systems to upgrade (or sometimes downgrade) to a different set of rules. In the context of Citrea, the maintainers and community will perform a series of forks over the testnet and mainnet to keep improving the protocol. Every system upgrades differently, most popularly via hard forks or soft forks. Kumquat is an example of a hard fork.
