On another note; Veqtrus, or anyone working on this as well... Is it safe to run Segwit versions with p2pool at this time?  The PR for Segwit seems to be handling pretty well, I just want to confirm it is safe or okay to use with the pool at this time Smiley

Before activation my PR is compatible with older nodes. It doesn't accept segwit transactions in shares and the only extra check it does before activation (block weight instead of size limit) is exactly the same for non-segwit transactions.

BTW while we are at it, it would be possible to combine the segwit change with the ability to specify a P2SH address for payout. Are people interested in that? Or should we wait and update once segwit addresses are used?

Awesome.  Thanks for the info.  In that case, I will update my remaining nodes..

I was interested in using a P2SH address for mining right to a multisig wallet waay back, but I never got around to implementing it.  Would your changes for segwit P2SH add support for that as well?  I say go for it if you want, we can always include it later, right?  Let me know and I'll make some time to test it out.
