We’ve extended the deprecation height to 5 333 777—about 619 days (1.5 years) ahead—so every node has plenty of time to upgrade before the auto-shutdown kicks in. At roughly 500 000 blocks per year (≈1 400 blocks/day), this change gives about 18 months of lead time for exchanges, services, and end users to deploy the new release without interruption.

Shouldn't the logical deprecation height be based on an assumption/anticipation date of the next hard fork plus a buffer? Example: |
we plan to transition to KMD 2.0 (new protocol basis, PoS, etc.) by then thus added a bit of a buffer to not have to roll out another "depr height update" in the mean-time. |
