Bitcoin Cash: Support aserti3-2d DAA #471

@jonas-lundqvist

Description

@jonas-lundqvist

On November 15 there will be a planned network upgrade on the Bitcoin Cash network that will activate a new and non backwards compatible Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm called aserti3-2d. Breadwallet needs to implement it since the wallet is verifying the block headers and thus verifying the difficulty.

Specifications can be found here:

Please note that there will also be an additional soft-fork as specified in the "Coinbase Rule" by Bitcoin ABC and most certainly a chain split since no other full node software is implementing it. Not implementing the soft-fork will let the wallet follow the chain with most Proof-of-Work.
