That'd be a foolish design decision to move exclusively over; their wallet was safe to use during the recent fork, unlike Android Wallet, precisely because of their existing design. In any case, regardless of whether we're wrong about the popularity issue, I've yet to see any issues raised with implementing NODE_BLOOM that will adversely affect such wallets - we've certainly got no shortage of node capacity to go around. -- 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 00000000000000000402fe6fb9ad613c93e12bddfc6ec02a2bd92f002050594d
