Hello, I'm thinking about writing a BIP about resetting the testnet on regular/scheduled basis
The idea works like this: * Every 210000 block is being used as the genesis of a completely new chain. * The old one gets forgotten * No chain can be longer than 210000 blocks The problems are: * How to get this working with testnet3? Only a hardfork probably. * Is it that easy to change the chain while Bitcoin Core is running? Probably the blocks need to be appended to the cureent one. After a restart it would get patched * Could the the chain derive into multiple once at every reset? (Planned attacks) What do you think about the idea? Greetings, Emil Engler
