Three months was chosen because it's long enough to give miners a reasonable enough amount of time to activate taproot but it's also short enough that it doesn't delay any of the existing proposals with roughly one-year timelines. As such, I think it has the potential to gain acceptance from multiple current factions (even if it doesn't ever gain their full approval), allowing us to move forward with rough social consensus and to gain useful information from the attempt that can inform future decisions. -Dave --unrug5igkh2424as Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEgxUkqkMp0LnoXjCr2dtBqWwiadMFAmBD5NYACgkQ2dtBqWwi adMcfg//eXh1yob5iqAl9u2k/pwtIk2I+1QYfy3MydiJiTEciu5cMh7POx4audho Zl90VYQbYdO38TsECXAm9xLfNN2TPXshM3lYqsXiUaypKiYradjoiBEeF3RKUexs xHD3MGXrjx2+mDr1Jf12mXFkum84xfvbTsLKMVaV+QS1qQGipIcm8nyyd1ne80JJ scmaSXCXIms5arxXs7bCi8mzdtUwsLY0YrUM8ifT9wh4E/mK+MZ1stVAwJzEV1xX uAfgL+q1xj9TjV6G9tF15du177QMv584rTss+CYXyqmCjWLvz3Kdi1H/aNo1Uly4 SoGGLQCAS4UHNMzoNkXTuc1nw0DnGnFemrcxF2N1wqscN8MFNzbjKVubJRKtXNHf /QkWOk73sxL74xvmz2eT+Qn0UU8fAjSZXvCyDtK9oXpGP+0jbNorOBC9bLcRfHrZ hra3DplKJd2ZNiIkWM4HC5HdN9dNzo5msh2Q4UrLTOophneWSZEljm7ohdHXkR67 TizaBbB0V5HWKdG1oCWXx4xjsw3fPn54TKCyzlpME805mWpR2VMb1cN1esl1qx5N VP32DlhAuDr5P2kWF5XsMn9Rzcbc0Bb+SUlgasfGdQitOtUie8dkT/Up6LpwpFtR KPX9c/gDtDZorb3CBvElRLoEo/dH4f/jcGYyKgzzDEjNxCqBGqQ= =W/k4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --unrug5igkh2424as--
