I think this is a much better approach. Thanks.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; FWIW, I disagree in this case. I think given the circumstances, if we are&#xA;&gt; going to do a UASF for segwit at all, we need a clearly decisive outcome,&#xA;&gt; which is given by BIP 148. Using the approach in BIP 8 makes sense in many&#xA;&gt; cases, but in this case, it is liable to simply create a prolonged&#xA;&gt; uncertainty&#xA;&gt; where nobody knows the outcome when segwit&#39;s rules are challenged by a&#xA;&gt; malicious miner.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; If BIP 148 fails to achieve widespread support, we could do a BIP 8-based&#xA;&gt; UASF&#xA;&gt; with Segwit v2 (along with some other changes I suggested in the other&#xA;&gt; thread), but I think the tradeoffs right now favour BIP 148 as the best&#xA;&gt; UASF&#xA;&gt; deployment.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Luke&#xA;&gt; _______________________________________________&#xA;&gt; bitcoin-dev mailing list&#xA;&gt; bitcoin-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org&#xA;&gt; https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev&#xA;&gt;&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20170502/0cee5728/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
