Nodes enforcing BIP-110 began rejecting blocks that did not signal support for the proposal, while the dominant Bitcoin chain continued operating under its existing consensus rules. Roughnecks, using Ocean\u2019s DATUM system, mined BIP-110 blocks 961632 and 961633, but the minority chain then stalled as Bitcoin continued producing blocks normally.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin\u2019s Difficulty Leaves the Minority Chain Stranded<\/h2>\n<p>The problem facing the BIP-110 chain is straightforward: it inherited Bitcoin\u2019s roughly 127.48 trillion mining difficulty while attracting only a tiny fraction of Bitcoin\u2019s SHA-256d hashpower.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-difficulty-adjustment-explained\/\">Essentially, Bitcoin\u2019s mining difficulty<\/a> determines how hard it is to discover a valid block. Bitcoin can sustain such an enormous difficulty because vast amounts of specialized mining equipment are constantly searching for blocks. The BIP-110 chain kept that same difficulty after the split but did not take anything close to the same amount of hashpower with it.<\/p>\n<p>That mismatch is why the chain slowed so dramatically. The rules did not automatically adjust difficulty downward simply because most miners stayed with Bitcoin. With only limited SHA-256d hashpower working on the minority chain, finding another block could take an extremely long time unless substantially more miners join or the chain\u2019s rules are changed.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Fire the Miners\u2019 Emerges as a Possible Escape Route<\/h2>\n<p>That predicament has pushed some BIP-110 supporters toward a much more consequential contingency: changing the proof-of-work algorithm used by the minority chain. On Aug. 9, pseudonymous BIP-110 author <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/dathon_ohm\/status\/2086500015136977318?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dathon Ohm accused large mining pools of colluding to turn Bitcoi<\/a>n \u201cfrom money into a toxic data dumping ground\u201d and said supporters were working on a proof-of-work proposal \u201cto fire the miners.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_838238\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-838238\" style=\"width:1368px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-838238\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image source: X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The idea would not alter Bitcoin\u2019s dominant chain. Instead, the contemplated change would give the BIP-110 minority chain a different mining algorithm, allowing it to escape dependence on the SHA-256d mining industry that overwhelmingly remained with Bitcoin after the split.<\/p>\n<p>That distinction matters. Existing Bitcoin miners operate ASIC machines specifically engineered for SHA-256d. If the BIP-110 chain adopted another algorithm, those machines could no longer automatically dominate mining on that chain and hurt it in any way.<\/p>\n<h2>BIP-110\u2019s Failed Signaling Push Drives the Debate<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/featured\/bip-110-supporters-prepare-pow-switch-if-miners-refuse-soft-fork-plan\/\">BIP-110, formally known as the Reduced Data Temporary Softfork<\/a>, was authored by Ohm with significant input from longtime Bitcoin developer and Bitcoin Knots maintainer Luke Dashjr.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal temporarily restricts several ways non-financial data can be embedded in transactions, including techniques associated with Ordinals, BRC-20 tokens and similar protocols. Supporters argue the restrictions would reduce blockchain data they consider spam while preserving Bitcoin primarily as a monetary settlement network.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_838246\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-838246\" style=\"width:1326px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-838246 size-full\" title=\"BIP-110 Backers Plot Minority Chain's PoW Reset to 'Fire' Bitcoin Miners\" src=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/screenshot-2026-08-09-at-3-09-52-pm.png\" alt=\"X screenshot. \" width=\"1326\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/screenshot-2026-08-09-at-3-09-52-pm-300x67.png 300w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/screenshot-2026-08-09-at-3-09-52-pm-1024x230.png 1024w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/screenshot-2026-08-09-at-3-09-52-pm-768x173.png 768w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/screenshot-2026-08-09-at-3-09-52-pm.png 1326w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1326px) 100vw, 1326px\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-838246\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The founder of the large mining pool F2pool called Dashjr out on X and specifically said to feel free to change the PoW algorithm.
