Why now
- The fork recently entered its mandatory signaling phase but failed to attract sufficient miner backing.
- Mining stalled just two blocks in, signaling a lack of community and miner adoption.
- The widening split and frozen fork status are current developments impacting Bitcoin’s network dynamics.
Why it matters
- The fork’s failure highlights the challenges of gaining miner support for Bitcoin protocol changes.
- Low hashpower on the fork risks network security and delays difficulty adjustments, impacting usability.
- The stalled fork underscores the dominance of the main Bitcoin chain and miner consensus in protocol upgrades.
