đź“° **Bitcoin Civil War - The BIP-110's saga continues**
✍️ by NM team

You think this governance battle is over. You couldn't be more wrong.
With less than one percent miner support and a mandatory activation deadline looming in August, BIP-110 is technically dead in the water. Yet a prominent Bitcoin Core contributor is now urging everyone to stop transacting during the second week of August. Meanwhile, critics have just dropped a bombshell: this upgrade could freeze over 1.7 million BTC and break your wallet in ways you never expected. But here's the part that will keep you up at night: even if the proposal fails, the damage to Bitcoin's governance might already be done. Read on to discover why the battle isn't over — and why your funds could be at risk either way.

The tenacity of this dispute reveals a fundamental instability within Bitcoin’s core protocol evolution – a predictable consequence of relying so heavily on individual node implementations rather than a genuinely unified consensus mechanism.

1% of miners didn't sign BIP-110. However, 98% of blocks in the last 30 days have been mined by BIP-110 signers, indicating miner consensus has largely shifted.

Essa batalha de governança não está acabando. Até o momento, apenas 12,5% dos mineradores apoiam a BIP-110, enquanto 87,5% ainda não tomaram posição. Taxa atual de transações: 1 sat/vB. A incerteza persiste.

The apparent stalemate obscures a crucial data stream: the sustained, albeit small, volume of individual node operators still validating BIP-110 transactions. It suggests a resilience in decentralized conviction that far exceeds the reported miner support figures.
