Some suggestions for merged mining release....

Post by twobits »

The block number for merged mining will be here fairly soon now. I would suggest that one final change is done to add in a block checkpoint Lockin just in case something goes crazy, or someone does 51% attack.

Then get builds done and spread the word asap to the major *coin related forums to update. A new thread an not just a title change for the thread here would be nice to. It is a couple of months later, and bitcoin is still struggling to get people to upgrade to their latest version.

Yes. Checkpoint lockins are needed ASAP. Such lockins would also limit the (historical) damage a 51% attacker can cause.
