What are the chances that this doesn't end in disaster? Honest question.



Chances are high that it will not end in disaster, in my opinion.

They've simulated the switchover dozens of times on a diverse set of networks, including development ("shadow") forks of the main network itself.


Can you provide some examples?


Many/most people "in the know" peg it somewhere in the ballpark of ~90-95% chance of success from what I've seen.
