So I was reading this
http://wololo.net/2016/12/06/nintendo-bug-bounty-meaning-3ds-users/
And noticed in an interview with smealum the following part
"The main thing at this stage is keeping the latest version exploitable so that people can still run homebrew (or, for a lot of people, pirate) on the console they get for Christmas. The upcoming CCC talk will certainly help drive that point home."
So I think we'll probably see easy downgrades without second 3ds or hardmod very soon.
