-# Add height as the first item in the coinbase transaction's scriptSig, and increase block version to 2. The format of the height is "serialized CScript" -- first byte is number of bytes in the number (will be 0x03 on main net for the next 150 or so years with 2<sup>23</sup>-1 blocks), following bytes are little-endian representation of the number (including a sign bit).  Height is the height of the mined block in the block chain, where the genesis block is height zero (0).
