📝 Original message:> * 2 MB, height 210,000 < 420,000; (when 75% of last 1,000 blocks signal
support)
This doesnt give anyone a chance to upgrade and would cause a hard fork the
moment a miner created a >1MB block. Flag day (hard fork) upgrades must
start the change at a sufficient time in the future (greater than the
current block height) to give all nodes the chance to upgrade.
