Bitcoin's BIP-110 soft fork effort has effectively failed as a network-wide consensus upgrade after its enforcing branch split from the main chain at block 961,632 and then stalled after producing only two blocks. In the prior difficulty period, the proposal received just 51 signaling blocks, or 2.53%, far below its 55% early lock-in threshold, underscoring the lack of broad miner backing. The minority chain inherited mainnet difficulty, attracted little hashpower and no established market value, leaving it hundreds of blocks behind Bitcoin's main network and exposing users to replay risk because it lacks built-in replay protection. The episode also widened governance and messaging disputes around Bitcoin development: David Schwartz criticized Bitcoin Knots for describing the situation as an attack on Bitcoin, while Bitcoin Knots said it was working on chain-state mitigation and considering a new proof-of-work algorithm through a deterministic random process.
