 - Upgrade is mandatory one week before hardfork due to forced disconnect of legacy nodes

Being a fork of Bitcoin ABC project, which is a fork of Bitcoin project, it comes robust design by default. Over 99% of the codebase is authored by Bitcoin contributors. On testnet we have tested a variety of selfish miner scenarios of hash rate coming in at 200x and leaving with 1x. On mainnet we have had turbomining under the Bitcoin Clashic time period where blocks were sometimes mined seconds apart. During the Clashic era we also had numerous back to back 8MB blocks as transactions were replayed from Bitcoin Cash.

Nothing beats real world load, but we feel cautiously optimistic that the modifications from Bitcoin ABC 0.14.6. 0.15.0, 0.15.1, Bitcoin Clashic ABCD 16.1, Bitcoin Core SQ 0.16.1, 0.16.2 does not impact performance from the point the codebase was forked from Bitcoin.

What is the reward campaign of the project?

Has the core of the project already been tested under a high load?

Note: Since shunning obsolete versions going into the hardfork we have lost capabilities of Bitnodes via:
https://bitnodes.earn.com/nodes/?q=Bitcoin+Core

There is nothing wrong with the Bitcoin Core full nodes, they are operating as expected.
Bitnodes (Earn/Coinbase) was asked a week in advanced to update their protocol_version of crawlers to 80030.
Since they have not complied, they are unable to properly query the nodes because of forced disconnect.
All upgraded nodes show a height of 0, and many have been removed from listing.

We will be forking bitnodes repo on to bitnodes.thebitcoincore.org. We will put up on Announce post when this has been completed.

Shunning was activated over 12 hours ago and everything functioning as expected. PROTOCOL_VERSION < 80030 are now being disconnected (REJECT_OBSOLETE). MIN_PEER_PROTO_VERSION == ONE_MINUTE_BLOCKS_VERSION.

Hey folks, awesome stuff!

You're one of the few cryptocurrency projects that I can follow with a smile on my face, and yet still know you're being serious.

That said, am I the only one here that feels like half the people commenting here hasn't really noticed the humor that's weaved in just about everything there is in this project? (Not saying you're a joke, just that I see the fun you're having while actually doing something pretty serious).

This is a good start.
