Hi, Would it be wise to add a consensus rule like the one we have for blocks,
(if > 75% from last 1000 blocks are version 'n' mark version 'n' as standard for blocks and if > 95% from the last 1000 blocks are version 'n' mark previous block versions as invalid) but for transaction versions? In simple terms, if > 75% from all the transactions in the latest 1000 blocks are version 'n', mark all previous transaction versions as non-standard and if > 95% from all the transactions in the latest 1000 blocks are version 'n' mark all previous transaction versions as invalid. At this moment, the standard in consensus is v1, but nothing is enforced in the network related to transaction versions. Regarding BIP62, as it can be read here [0] it is said that it requires v2 transactions. It is also said that transaction version 2 will be skipped and jump directly to v3, for an even version for transactions and blocks (?). Might as well add the rule for invalidating previous transaction versions if the majority updates - could this break anything or affect functionality in any way? BIP62 adds a newer transaction version which is optional and does not mark previous v1 as non-standard or invalid. This means bitcoin core will treat both v1 and v2/v3 transactions as standard and relay/mine them with the same priority, regardless of the tx version? Thanks.
