Currently, a tx maybe included in a block only if its locktime (x) is
smaller than the timestamp of a block (y)
BIP113 says that a tx maybe included in a block only if x is smaller
than the median-time-past (z)
It is already a consensus rule that y > z. Therefore, if x < z, x < y
The new rul
BIP 113 makes things valid which currently are not (any transaction with a
locktime between the median time past, and the block nTime). Therefore it is a
hardfork. Yet the current BIP describes and deploys it as a softfork.
Furthermore, Bitcoin Core one week ago merged #6566 adding BIP 113 logic
