BIP-110 Bitcoin Fork Stalls After Only Two Blocks

The Bitcoin branch known as BIP-110 has encountered a roadblock after only two blocks were successfully mined, causing a widening gap between this fork and the main Bitcoin network.

This fork was introduced to implement the Taproot upgrade, which would enhance the privacy and functionality of transactions on the network. However, the slow pace of mining on BIP-110 has raised concerns about its viability as a viable alternative to the main chain.

The gap between the two networks is growing at an alarming rate, with each new block mined on the main chain potentially leaving BIP-110 further behind. If this trend continues, it may become increasingly difficult for miners to switch back and forth between the two networks.
