Odaily News BIP-110 has sparked community controversy over its attempt to restrict non-financial data storage on the Bitcoin blockchain. Supporters of this proposal plan to push for the rule change through a User-Activated Soft Fork (UASF), but current miner support is far from meeting the activation requirements. The market is watching whether this controversy will further escalate into a split within Bitcoin's network governance.Blockstream CEO Adam Back criticized the arguments of BIP-110 supporters in a post on the X platform, stating that the claim "Bitcoin supports spam data" is incorrect and noting that all Bitcoin participants dislike network spam. Adam Back pointed out that Bitcoin cannot achieve absolute censorship at the mathematical level, and the BIP-110 proposal itself has numerous flaws that prevent it from functioning effectively, which is why it has not gained network consensus. He emphasized that forcibly pushing rule changes without consensus could ultimately lead to a fork outcome similar to Bitcoin SV (BSV).
