:relfileprefix: ../../
:mrdocs:

Special value for nStartTime indicating that the deployment is always active. This is useful for testing, as it means tests don't need to deal with the activation process (which takes at least 3 BIP9 intervals). Only tests that specifically test the behaviour during activation cannot use this.
