So, what do you think? Are we going to come to the conclusion in the end that this is normal and desirable program behavior that gives us early warning alerts as to the possibility of a fork (a just in case type of thing, even if it isn't even remotely likely at all) and we just need to be patient, automatically cancel payments for a couple of minutes, and then move on? That's a lot better than the alternative that the coding prevents against, isn't it?

And if BTC still hasn't come up with an improved, even better, whiter, faster, bigger, beyond all worldly expectations that suspend the basic laws of physics . . .

I'd be requesting all kinds of data from Bittrex, and doing my best not to let them distract me too much from all the more important things I have on my agenda.
