I'm reasonably\nconfident that the risks to SPV nodes can be mitigated (e.g. by deploying\nmempool-only first, before the soft fork rolls out), but as somebody who\nhas only been moderately paying attention, BETTER COMMUNICATION is needed.\nWhat should SPV wallet authors be doing right now, if anything? Once the\nsoft fork starts to roll out or activates, what do miners need to be aware\nof? SPV wallet authors?\n\n3) I agree CLTV is ready to roll out, that there is rough consensus a soft\nfork is a reasonable way to do it, and that it should happen ASAP.\n\nOn Mon, Sep 28, 2015 at 6:48 AM, Mike Hearn via bitcoin-dev \u003c\nbitcoin-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org\u003e wrote:\n\n\u003e There is *no* consensus on using a soft fork to deploy this feature.
