Bitcoin BIP-110 enters four-week countdown as community faces critical decision on activating contentious soft fork
Odaily News Bitcoin nodes running BIP-110 rules have begun enforcing mandatory signaling mechanisms at block height 961,632. Latest data shows that BIP-110 miner signaling support fluctuates between just 0.3% and 2.6%, with no major mining pool publicly supporting the proposal. Nodes enabling BIP-110 enforcement rules are mainly operated by users running Bitcoin Knots software. These nodes subsequently reject blocks that do not emit signals, effectively isolating themselves from the Bitcoin main network.It is reported that the BIP-110 signaling period will continue until Bitcoin block height 965,664, expected to conclude in approximately four weeks. At that point, the community will face the critical decision of whether to activate the proposal. If the 55% miner support threshold is reached during the signaling period, BIP-110's data limit rules will take effect at block height 965,664 and remain active for approximately one year, covering around 52,416 blocks.Analysts point out that unlike the 2017 Bitcoin Cash fork, the BIP-110 split lacks substantial miner support and exchange infrastructure. If the number of nodes and hash power separating from the main chain proves insufficient, the forked chain could face severe block production speed issues. Since Bitcoin's difficulty adjustment mechanism relies on stable hash power, when a minority chain loses adequate miner support, block generation times could extend from the target 10 minutes to several hours or even days.For Bitcoin Knots node operators who have already enabled BIP-110 rules, the current practical impact is that their nodes can no longer stay synchronized with the Bitcoin main network. Going forward, they will need to either disable the enforcement rules and resynchronize with the main chain, or continue running this independent network that lacks widespread support.
