Bitcoin Mining Giant Foundry Asks Miners To Vote on BIP-110 Soft Fork
Bitcoin mining pool Foundry Digital is allowing miners to vote on the BIP-110 soft fork proposal, which aims to restrict non-monetary data on the blockchain. The vote uses miners' hashrate as a voting mechanism, with Foundry controlling a third of the network's hashrate. The proposal faces debate between supporters advocating for Bitcoin as pure money and opponents warning of potential fee-paying transaction invalidation.
