So I've created 2 new repositories with changed rules regarding sequencenumbers: https://github.com/maaku/bitcoin/tree/sequencenumbers2 This repository inverts (un-inverts?) the sequence number. nSequence=1 means 1 block relative lock-height. nSequence=LOCKTIME_THRESHOLD means 1 second relative

To follow up on this, let's say that you want to be able to have up to 1 year relative lock-times. This choice is somewhat arbitrary and what I would like some input on, but I'll come back to this point. * 1 bit is necessary to enable/disable relative lock-time. * 1 bit is necessary to

Your proposal also permanently burns a sequence bit. It depends on how we value a nSequence bit and a nVersion bit. I think there is a trade-off here: 1. nSequence is signed by each TxIn individually, while all TxIns must share the same nVersion 2. If nVersion is used to indicate the

A power of 2 would be far more efficient here. The key question is how long of a relative block time do you need? Figure out what the maximum should be ( I don't know what that would be, any ideas?) and then see how many bits you have left over. On Aug 23, 2015 7:23 PM, Jorge Timón

Would be wonderful to have this pushed together with CLTV and BIP68. If BIP68 get pushed in the next fork, this CSV is a no brainer. Was there a competing RCLTV implementation somewhere that did not depend on BIP68 for information ? I don't manage to find it.
