Following on my earlier message, I am happy to announce a new soft fork to be= deployed using=C2=A0BIP 9=C2=A0- Version bits.

Please review=C2=A0BIP 9=C2=A0as it has been updated for infor= mation on how Version bits soft forks activate.

This deployment is being referred to as CSV (CheckSequenceVerify) = and will activate the following 3 BIPS as consensus rules:
<= a href=3D"https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0068.mediawiki">B= IP 68 - Relative lock-time using consensus-enforced sequence numbers
BIP 112 - CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY
BIP 113 - Median time-past as= endpoint for lock-time calculations

These BIP&#= 39;s have been updated with the deployment information:
bit: 0<= /div>
startTime:=C2=A01462060800 "May 1st, 2016" =C2=A0 (mai= nnet)
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 = =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A01456790400 "March 1st, 2016" (testnet)=
endTime: =C2=A0=C2=A0= 1493596800 "May 1st, 2017" =C2=A0 (mainnet and testnet)


Bitcoin Core will release 0.11.3 and 0.12.1 software which implem= ents these soft forks in the near future.


Thanks,=
Alex
