Der umstrittene BIP-110-Vorschlag für Bitcoin ist nun in seine obligatorische Signalierungsphase eingetreten und rückt damit Miner, Entwickler und die breitere Bitcoin-Community in den Fokus.
BIP-110 – offiziell als „Reduced Data Temporary Softfork“ bezeichnet – hat zum Ziel, bestimmte Methoden zur vorübergehenden Einbettung großer Mengen nicht-finanzieller Daten in Bitcoin-Transaktionen zeitweise einzuschränken.
Die zentrale Entwicklung ist die Miner-Signalgebung.
📊 Zu Beginn der obligatorischen Signalierungsperiode unterstützten nur etwa 2,53 % der Blöcke – weit unter der erforderlichen 55-%-Schwelle für eine frühe Aktivierung.

Bitcoin is heading into a high-stakes “test weekend” as BIP-110 approaches its mandatory signaling period, with observers watching whether enough of the ecosystem coordinates to make the proposal move forward. Reports frame this as a rare moment where a smaller set of nodes could choose to reject blocks produced by the vast majority of miners if BIP-110 activation proceeds on their view of the rules.
What BIP-110 is
BIP-110 (also described as the “Reduced Data Temporary Soft Fork”) is a soft fork proposal intended to temporarily restrict certain non-monetary data carried in transactions, with the stated goal of reducing blockchain bloat and re-emphasizing “monetary use cases.” The signaling mechanism uses miners setting a specific bit.
In the latest overview tied to the approach companies should take, BIP-110 is described as entering a key stage where it becomes mandatory to signal at a specific height, then locks in later if conditions are met, and then activates new transaction rules on a subsequent height—each with projections that place the first “consequential” boundary around Aug. 9, 2026.
Why the weekend matters
The crux is that signaling ≠ immediate activation, and even if signaling is far below what many observers associate with a smooth upgrade, the proposal is user/node-activated in practice: nodes independently enforce the rules they run. That means a disagreement can materialize as a chain split if enforcing nodes follow one branch while the rest of the network follows another.
One analysis emphasizes that BIP-110 supporters argue the story shouldn’t be treated like a “miner referendum,” because coordination by nodes and economic actors is what ultimately matters once the upgrade’s rules come into effect.
What to watch during the signaling window
Commentary pieces and monitors commonly focus on a few observable signals:
Signaling levels from mining pools (e.g., whether the network reaches the proposal’s threshold)Whether enforcement nodes separate (i.e., whether rejection shows up in practice)Ecosystem responses—exchanges, custodians, and node operators lengthening settlement/confirmation procedures if a split becomes plausible
A live “monitor” exists to track the current signaling status and period progress, though it relies on client-side loading for real-time numbers.
The two big takeaways
The immediate question is whether enough actors converge on enforcing the BIP-110 rules to make the change stick in practice.The main operational risk scenario isn’t “BIP-110 signaling alone,” but a chain split where some nodes reject the dominant chain.
That “monitor the possibility of a split and adjust operational behavior” framing shows up directly in guidance-style analysis aimed at corporate Bitcoin users and infrastructure operators.
