Bitcoin Merged Mining: BIP-300/301 Reading Group

📙 Atlanta BitDevs' reading groups are small sessions where we focus on a specific topic within Bitcoin development and help each other understand it through discussion.

This time, we'll discuss BIP-300/301, which is a proposal for merged mining. The problem this BIP is trying to solve is finding a way to incentivize bitcoiner miners to continue securing the network once the block reward runs out, in the event that transaction fees are not deemed profitable enough to miners.
