BITCOIN BIP 110 HARD-DRIVE DEADLINE APPROACHING, WITH A MINER SUPPORT RATE ZERO

The fact that the BIP 110 deadline for Bitcoin is approaching and that the current support rate for miners is zero indicates strong opposition to the proposal. BIP 110, a proposal to remove non-financial data from the Bitcoin block chain, is expected to expire in early August. Despite extensive social discussions around the topic, the support rate for miners remains below 1 per cent. This proposal will limit the data size of OP RETURN and prevent any data blocks larger than 256 bytes. Proponents believe that this would allow more focus on payments than on TTco, while critics argue that it would transform policy battles into consensus rules. Two important figures in Bitcoin, Michael Saylor, founder of Strategy, and Adam Back, co-founder of Blockstream, all objected。

Encryption of payment cards: The lowest combined costs for Esther.fi, Plasma, Backpack second and third

On 12 July, KOL Nikita disclosed that it had carried out the same 9.69 euro consumption test in Europe for Ether.fi, Plasma, Backpack, Lava, Jup Mobile and KAST's encryption payment cards. After the combined exchange rate, fees and recoveries, Esther.fi ranked first at the actual cost of $10.72, Plasma ranked second at the cost of $10.93 and Backpack ranked third at 11.07. Tests show a difference of about 5 per cent in the actual cost of consumption between different encrypted payment cards, which is determined mainly by the foreign-exchange differentials, the handling fees and the return mechanism. Ether.fi achieves the best performance on a continuous basis with better exchange rates and chains; Plasma, with a lower exchange rate than some of the new products, relies on 3 per cent for a second return; and KAST, with a lower exchange rate and an additional charge, is the most cost-effective product in the test for the second time in a row。

According to the Zachxbt survey, the address was awarded over 196 million Labs in April 2026, then transferred about 196 million Labs to the betget filling address, and in May collected about 100 million Labs to 10 addresses from bitget until the transfer to aster began this week.

This price collapse coincided with the market hearsay of a token unlocking node, and the Lab team responded only on the grounds of “large market participants”. Furthermore, Zachxbt expressed disappointment at the lack of measures against market manipulation in Bitget, Currency and Gate。
