I started exploring the potential of BFD after this specification.
What would be the preferred/recommended way to handle 0-conf/mempool
filtering – if & once BDF would have been deployed (any type,
semi-trusted oracles or protocol-level/softfork)?
From the user-experience perspective, this is probably pretty important
(otherwise the experience will be that incoming funds can take serval
minutes to hours until they appear).
Using BIP37 bloom filters just for mempool filtering would obviously
result in the same unwanted privacy-setup.
