@ -66,9 +66,12 @@ Segwit also simplifies the ability to add new features to Bitcoin and
improves the efficiency of full nodes, which will help provide long-term
benefits to Bitcoin users.
Activation for the segwit soft fork is being managed using BIP9 versionbits.
The earliest activation date is set to 15 November 2016 (UTC) and
its versionbit is bit 1.
Activation for the segwit soft fork is being managed using BIP9
versionbits. Segwit's version bit is bit 1, and nodes will begin
tracking which blocks signal support for segwit on 15 November 2016
(UTC). If 95% of blocks within a 2,016-block retarget period (about two
weeks) signal support for segwit, the soft fork will be locked in.
After another 2,016 blocks, segwit will activate.
For more information about segwit, please see the [segwit FAQ][], the
[segwit wallet developers guide][] or BIPs [141][BIP141], [143][BIP143],
