As the one who proposed it, I do not think it will ever happen in Bitcoin. Actually the ONLY reason we may need OP_CHECKCOLORVERIFY is to allow SPV nodes to verify color in an easier way. However, SPV nodes could still verify color without OP_CHECKCOLORVERIFY. They just follow the transaction chain until they see the origin of the color.
If that's for a sidechain / alt-coin, there could be more elegant ways to do this. I had to put it in the script because that's the only location in Bitcoin where people could include arbitrary content.
Topic: Re: OP_CHECKCOLORVERIFY: soft-fork for native color coin support (Read 2101 times)
What is the current thinking/status for OP_CHECKCOLORVERIFY inclusion into prod Bitcoin?
What is the current thinking/status for Sidechain support. Would it be possible to have Sidechains which support OP_CHECKCOLORVERIFY as a first step if too much for Bitcoin to take in right now?
Any updates on people thinking would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
