Odaily Planet Daily News: Proposed Bitcoin rules in BIP-110 were triggered to cause a chain fork on Saturday. The forked chain is currently producing only 2 blocks and has since stalled. Because the forked chain inherits the high mining difficulty of the Bitcoin mainnet, and its token has no market value, miners lack incentive to support it, causing the chain to fall behind the mainnet by 326 blocks. The forked chain must reach 2016 blocks before it can lower the mining difficulty; currently, it is expected to take more than six years. Some observers say it is still too early to judge that this attempt has failed. (CoinDesk)
