Woofun AI reports that Michael Saylor has publicly opposed the BIP-110 soft fork, arguing that "the proposed cure is more dangerous than the condition" for Bitcoin. As executive chairman of Strategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, Saylor contends that restricting certain arbitrary-data and script uses through this temporary measure introduces unacceptable systemic risks.

The deeper driver of the current crisis is the mathematical impossibility of reaching the early-lock threshold within the present difficulty period. Live monitoring indicates that only 0.89% of miners are signaling support for bit 4. From the July 20 monitor tip and assuming nominal 10-minute blocks, the mandatory-signaling window spans heights 961,632 through 963,647, during which enforcing nodes will reject any block omitting the required signal.

Woofun AI data shows that forced lock-in occurs at height 963,648, with latest-path activation scheduled for height 965,664 around Sept. 5. This timeline places the critical decision window roughly between Aug. 8 and Aug. 22. Without broad coordination from mining pools, Bitcoin risks splitting into competing histories, forcing exchanges and businesses to choose which chain governs deposits, withdrawals, and confirmations.

Resolution depends on identifiable pool support and concrete readiness plans from exchanges and wallet developers. Wallet developers must check for exposed Taproot and Miniscript paths, while node operators decide whether to enforce BIP-110. Non-signaling does not equal rejection, as the version bit only shows visible support. The decisive next signals remain enforcement choices and whether economic actors converge on a single history to avoid a durable split.
