Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 110 (BIP-110), which aimed to temporarily tighten consensus rules to make many types of non-financial transactions harder, has little chance of activation after failing to win meaningful industry backing. According to CoinDesk, critics including Strategy founder Michael Saylor and Blockstream co-founder Adam Back warned it could set a precedent for censorship by invalidating currently valid, fee-paying transactions. The debate was fueled by Taproot-enabled inscriptions, Ordinals and Runes, and by concerns that user-led activation without broad support could split Bitcoin; just over 0.7% of miners backed it as of Tuesday.
