Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 110 can no longer reach its 55% voluntary miner threshold during the current difficulty period, according to blockchain signaling data and an Aug. 1 analysis from Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor. Summary 28 signaling blocks appeared among 1,108, leaving BIP-110 at 2.53% support as of Aug. 2. Saylor said all 24 initial signals came from DATUM miners sharing rewards through OCEAN’s system. Mandatory signaling starts at block 961,632, when enforcing nodes reject every non-signaling block as invalid. Strategy’s official website identifies Saylor as the company’s executive chairman. At block 960,561, Saylor counted 24 signaling blocks among 946, equal to 2.54%.
