Roughnecks, a mining pool that supports the BIP-110 protocol, said on X that it will stop conducting mining operations under the Roughnecks name after a team meeting. The group also urged miners on the BIP-110 chain, under the current algorithm, to pause mining until further notice. Roughnecks said the move should not be viewed as a failure of the BIP-110 movement, describing it instead as a transition into the next stage. It thanked supporters and said the fight would continue, but that Roughnecks would no longer serve as the vanguard. Earlier, the pool discovered the first two BIP-110 blocks, which it said remain the only two BIP-110 blocks found so far. The statement was carried by Odaily.
