well its meant to stop the orphan fest that normally occurs at release so I do expect people will mine it.
I understand the logic of it, but thats a lot of blocks and a lot of hashpower for 0 gain. The danger being its too far out to actually reach in a timeframe that is quick enough for people to still care.
ps: I'm debating getting a pool up for this, just not sure if its going to survive long enough. Though it seems likely I'll be afk during the launch window anyways. Maybe I'll peek in later tonight and see how things look. Will set one up if it makes sense.
