http://www.mobr.ai/ontologies/ponto#SoftFork
A backward compatible change to client code causes upgraded clients to start mining a new chain. Requires a 'vote-by-hashrate' of a majority of miners to enact successfully. Soft forks are considered temporary divergences in a chain since non-upgraded clients do not follow the new consensus rules but upgraded clients are still compatible with old consensus rules.
