Genesis is a major update to the BitcoinSV mining client which is used by the majority of miners on the BitcoinSV network.
The upgrade is seen as a return to the original Bitcoin protocol, and includes the removal of all limit based consensus rules, and their replacement with miner configurable settings that give node operators the autonomy needed to set their own limits as they determine are practical.
The full specification is available here.
Genesis is scheduled to go into effect on or around the 4th of February 2019.
