==Contrasted with BIP 9==
* The '''lockinontimeout''' flag is added. BIP 9 would only transition to the FAILED state when timeout was reached.
==Backwards compatibility==
BIP8 and BIP9 deployments should not share concurrent active deployment bits. Nodes that only implement BIP9 will not activate a BIP8 soft fork if hashpower threshold is not reached by '''timeout''', however, those nodes will still accept the blocks generated by activated nodes.
