Apathy seems biggest challenge thus far 08:03 < nickler> "let's see what happens" is quite an exotic proposal imo (3 months timeout) so I doubt the majority is even aware of that. 08:05 < michaelfolkson> What's your preferred option nickler ideally out of the choices outlined here? https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Taproot_activation_proposals 08:07 < ghost43> we could just do BIP8(false, 1y) and keep debating while the clock is at least running :P 08:09 < michaelfolkson> "if it fails for no good reason, we’ll have wasted an entire year" 08:10 < ghost43> not starting the clock and debating is even more wasted time 08:12 < michaelfolkson> Yup seems reasonable 08:13 < michaelfolkson> And I suspect if we do end up wasting a year there will be urgency to not waste anymore time at the end of the year 08:16 < nickler> michaelfolkson: Deploying "start now improve later" without any upfront commitment is a good option. If it doesn't activate, the community can do a parallel bip8(true) UASF. Hopefully this will also incentivize better out-of-band coordination mechanisms. 08:22 < michaelfolkson> I think I prefer parallel UASF as last resort rather than choosing BIP8 (true) 08:23 < michaelfolkson> But you could do UASF after "let's see what happens" or "BIP 9 equivalent" fails too 08:23 < michaelfolkson> I don't think it really matters 08:45 -!- jonatack [~jon@213.152.162.99] has joined ##taproot-activation 08:46 -!- mol [~mol@unaffiliated/molly] has joined ##taproot-activation 08:48 -!- jeremyrubin [~jr@c-73-15-215-148.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined ##taproot-activation 08:56 < nickler> Parallel would be safer than after because it'd activate for bip8(false) users protecting them from now invalid chains produced by the remaining 5% (or more if signalling is dishonest). 09:10 < michaelfolkson> Interesting...
