Hm, I don't think we need a BIP352 specific comment here? I'd argue if we are going to sort outpoints, we should be sorting them based on their protocol definition, regardless of BIP352. In fact, when writing BIP352 we already assumed this was the case which is why we defined the outpoint sorting in BIP352 to be done lexicographically on the outpoint serialization. It

This seems unnecessarily unnatural and inefficient to use as a default sort order for this type.

If BIP352 defines its own normative sort order, I think it's better to have a specialized BIP352Comparator class that implements it, and use that in the BIP352 code?

I've been trying to reproduce in my local setup but I'm unable. Did you manage to trigger this on your updated branch, or with this one?

> I don't think that's necessary. However, you could use a recent block hash as a provably unspendable public key (instead of all zeros).

Well, we now have a genesis block with the hash in the message and the all zeros public key. I don't think that makes a difference anymore?

I consider closing the block storm loophole to be rather important - it's the primary reason why TBTC became scarce and accrued value far faster than ought to have happened. Given that the patch is rather trivial, it would be a huge missed opportunity not to fix it at this time.

I agree. Could you say precisely which (combination) of the [ideas given here so far](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29775#issuecomment-2094300149) do you consider a fix? Currently this PR includes the fix

I like all of the currently proposed changes.

So the question is this: if a high hashrate miner deliberately stalls testnet and we limp along for an entire difficulty adjustment period with minimum difficulty blocks, what should happen?

I think, in that case, perhaps we SHOULD reset the actual difficulty to the minimum difficulty (or to a sane ASIC difficulty like 1,000,000) and allow the network to find the real hashrate again.

Thus, it would still technically be possible for a block s

> since nodes with limited space would believe bitcoind was being limited/constrained to a particular allocated amount of space but would be exceeding the allocated amount

This is already the case today, because the 288 blocks rule takes precedence over the user-provided number. With average block sizes of 1.6MiB currently, my synced `prune=550` node usually takes up between 700MiB and 900MiB of space for `*.blk` and `*.rev` files.. The target is only respected when possible (during the earli
