Yes, this was one of my motivations for doing this soon. It would only require about 2 LOC to have Bitcoin Core vomit out a blob containing the final alert to any old protocol version peers that connect. I don't know how other people would feel about that, but I wouldn't mind implementing it, and it would greatly improve the likelihood that they continue to to get once propagation of it is gone. This could be left in the codebase for a couple years or until other changes made those old versions p2p incompatible for other reasons. _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
