Michael Saylor said on X that Bitcoin is operating as designed, framing the BIP-110 split as a case where a fork is free to proceed while the broader Bitcoin network is equally free not to follow it. The numbers he cited show where miners stayed. About 99.85% of Bitcoin hashpower remained on the Bitcoin network, while the BIP-110 branch produced only two blocks. At the time of the post, that branch was already more than 80 blocks behind. The update points to overwhelming mining support for the main Bitcoin chain rather than the fork.
