BIP110 Backers Draft PoW-Change Fallback to Bypass Miners if Soft Fork Stalls

AI Market Summary
BIP110 supporters are preparing a contingency proof-of-work change implementation rebased onto current Bitcoin Knots, intended as a last-resort path if major miners refuse to signal for the soft fork. The move elevates governance and execution-risk headlines, highlighting potential conflict between mining pools and node operators. Near term, this can raise uncertainty around consensus coordination and operational continuity for miners and infrastructure providers.

Supporters of Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 110 (BIP110) are lining up a contingency plan that could sidestep the existing mining network if the soft fork fails to gain miner signaling. Bitcoin developer Chris Guida said he has rebased Luke Dashjr's 2017 proof-of-work (PoW) change code onto the latest release of Bitcoin Knots, positioning it as a last-resort option should major mining pools be seen withholding support for BIP110. Dashjr said he hopes the measure won't be necessary, adding that it is "probably good to have it prepared just in case." Community members such as Mechanic backed having the code ready, arguing that the credible prospect of a PoW change helps keep miners accountable to node operators rather than allowing miners to dictate Bitcoin's rules.
