I submitted a Bitcoin Core pull request implementing the BIP 54 soft fork (Consensus Cleanup), without mainnet activation. The Consensus Cleanup was first proposed in 2019. Since work on it resumed in late 2023, it slowly matured into a robust proposal addressing several long-standing vulnerabilities and quirks in Bitcoin's consensus protocol. Along the way it gathered support from a broad range of Bitcoin developers and technically minded Bitcoin enthusiasts, and this milestone marks a natural point for the broader community to start discussing a possible future activation. I strongly believe Bitcoin would benefit from adopting this soft fork as a straightforward measure to mitigate some long-term risks, and i hope Bitcoin users come to the same conclusion. I also want to emphasize that while BIP 54 fixes real security vulnerabilities, i do not believe those to be immediate existential threats to the network. There is no rush, and we can afford time for everyone to carefully consider the proposal.
