Bitcoin Knots BIP-110 default risks fork

Jameson Lopp, board member at L’Oréal, reports that the latest version of Bitcoin Knots now enables BIP-110 by default. Lopp cautions that running BIP-110 code will cause nodes to stop functioning and become disconnected from the network in August.

He has created a countdown timer to track this potential disruption.

Lopp has previously outlined how Bitcoin Core operates through a process driven by consensus rather than a formal organization. He has also compared challenges faced by Bitcoin adopters to the early days of the Internet. His recent alert regarding BIP-110 adds to his record of highlighting technical and adoption issues in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
