Given the moderate time frame over which this change is to be implemented, we expect all miners to choose to screw themselves and deploy this change before 2214.
Anyone have a list of Alts and their halving intervals? I wonder what coin is next to have this problem.
I think infinite coin is near a halving and close-ish to being fully mined.
