BIP-110 needed 55% of miners signaling for it. Got 2.56%. Two blocks mined on the fork and then it just stalled out.&#xA;&#xA;So now the move is a proof of work change. Watch Testnet4, grab the next block hash, last character picks the algorithm off a list nobody agreed on til this morning.&#xA;&#xA;One of the Knots guys said the reason for ditching SHA256d is to fire the miners, not because it’s broken.&#xA;&#xA;We watched this movie in 2017. Different fight, same instinct. Small group decides the majority’s the problem and hard forks their way out. Ended in Bcash last time.&#xA;&#xA;Watching this one play out live today.&#xA;nostr:nevent1qqsrlpvupedsfv8vh0azdxfqnwusv28hzj4j0p3nt93nvqdv2luk2gczyr7at68k4cxms9a7pdca5gzf3svqd95d3fj9j4vuyj0nyta8x3j2wqcyqqqqqqgn8v9kz</html></oembed>
