ME News update: On April 4 (UTC+8), Wang Chun, a co-founder of F2Pool, posted on the X platform stating his firm opposition to the Bitcoin BIP-110 and BIP-54 protocol upgrade. The core reason is that he opposes pushing it through in a way similar to American politicians’ “bundling bills.” He pointed out that most of the issues being discussed currently have no real urgency: time warp attacks do not provide miners with any tangible benefit; block validation efficiency has already been greatly improved through libraries and hardware; forging confirmed transactions would require breaking SHA256—if that were accomplished, the BTC underlying security would already be compromised. Wang Chun believes none of these problems are sufficient to justify protocol changes; only “replay transactions” has value for remediation, making it one of the few changes worth implementing.
