ME News update: On April 4 (UTC+8), F2Pool co-founder Wang Chun posted on the X platform, explicitly opposing the proposed Bitcoin BIP-110 and the BIP-54 protocol upgrade. The core reason is that he opposes being forced ahead with similar to how U.S. politicians push “bundling bills.” He pointed out that most of the issues being discussed today have no real urgency: time warp attacks provide miners with no material benefit; block validation efficiency has been greatly improved through libraries and hardware; forging confirmed transactions would require cracking SHA256, and if that were achieved, the underlying security of BTC would already be invalid. Wang Chun believes none of these issues is sufficient to justify modifying the protocol—only “replay transactions” has repair value, and it is one of the few changes worth implementing.
