What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply updates a date-based block-height threshold in the COLDCARD firmware from a November 2025 value to a March 2026 value. It appears to be a routine scheduling change for a feature tied to a specific Bitcoin block height, not a security fix in itself. There is no evidence in the commit of a vulnerability being patched.
No immediate security action required. Review the feature documentation for 'ccc' to confirm the block-height schedule is intentional and consistent with product plans. Treat as a routine maintenance commit unless additional context emerges.
Security signals we found
No security-relevant code change: single constant update only
No mention of vulnerability, CVE, bug, or security issue in commit message or diff
Change is forward-dated, suggesting feature scheduling rather than incident response
Evidence from the diff
The change modifies ccc_min_block in shared/chains.py for BitcoinMain from block 922061 (commented as Nov 3/2025) to block 939464 (commented as Mar 5/2026). This is a one-line constant bump. The acronym ‘ccc’ likely refers to a COLDCARD-specific feature with a time-gated activation or deprecation. The commit contains no logic changes, no bounds checks, no cryptographic changes, and no explanation of security relevance.
