Topic: Satoshi 0.12.0 - page 2. (Read 2717 times)
I'm running 0.11.2, and I've got a peer running XT. I saw this 0.12.0 running for about an hour this morning. There weas also a 0.11.99 which I believe is a test version. Good to see there are some improvements on the way. Does anyone know what they are?
Nice to hear you're running 0.12. It might get released by Feb 1 2016. And even there are more releases after 0.12. If your wallet is fine and secure, you don't need to worry about the version you use. It is much more important that you can send and receive funds flawlessly whatever version you have. Also ensure it is secure enough.
One of my peers is running Satoshi: 0.12.0 - is that a new version with an imminent release?
If he is running 0.12, he is running a beta. 0.12.0 is hoped for by Feb 1, 2016, perhaps a bit earlier. So, yes release should be soon.

That might be a node running Bitcoin XT. This post mentions Satoshi 0.12.0 and is mostly about XT, but it suggests some changes to it, so perhaps your peer might be running an even more exotic wallet than XT.
If the core devs and Gavin agree on one change that will hard fork Bitcoin to mine and accept bigger blocks, I think most people would stop using XT and move back to the Satoshi client.
We could implement Mike's XT features later on down the road, like relaying the first observed double spend.
Core devs, how would you feel implementing the same type bigger block increase that's in XT, but make the increases smaller to something like this...?
Satoshi:0.12.0
Fork to 4MB blocks after 8 weeks of 80%+ of miners are using Satoshi:0.12.0. Earliest starting date on fork would be Feb 26 2016 at 00:00 (8 weeks after Jan 1 2016) .
Blocks increase by last two increases (one for 2018) every two years till 136MB blocks in 2030.
