Odaily Planet Daily reports that the BIP-110 proposal has recently sparked significant controversy within the Bitcoin community, with several Bitcoin OGs including Fish Pool co-founder Wang Chun, Casa co-founder Jameson Lopp, and Blockstream CEO Adam Back explicitly voicing their opposition.
Wang Chun stated that BIP-110 is like “a bunch of nonsense packaged in the name of protecting children, then imposed on us as a whole.”
Jameson Lopp also published a lengthy article saying that BIP-110 is reckless, irrational, and doomed to fail.
Adam Back believes that BIP-110 could threaten Bitcoin’s immutability and store of value.
Odaily Note: BIP-110 is a recent proposed improvement in the Bitcoin community, aiming to limit the size of non-monetary data (such as Ordinals inscriptions) in transactions through a soft fork, to alleviate the issue of “junk data” occupying block space.
