ChainCatcher report: The Bitcoin minority fork chain supporting BIP-110 split at block height 961,632. After mining only two blocks in approximately eight hours, it stalled and is now more than 80 blocks behind the Bitcoin mainnet. This fork chain inherited Bitcoin’s current difficulty, but only about 2.53% of recent blocks signaled support for BIP-110—far below the 55% activation threshold required without a fork. Bitcoin adjusts difficulty every 2,016 blocks; at current hash rate, this chain is estimated to require about 350 days to complete its next difficulty adjustment. BIP-110 proposes to temporarily prohibit writing non-financial data, such as images and text, into Bitcoin transactions. Michael Saylor stated that approximately 99.85% of Bitcoin’s hash power remains on the mainnet; due to shared transaction history, transactions on the minority chain may be replayed onto the Bitcoin mainnet.
