Bitcoin’s BIP-110 nears activation despite almost no public miner support
|
|
BIP-110, a user-activated soft fork meant to restrict non-payment data on Bitcoin, reaches a key signaling window on August 9 even though public miner support is below 3%. Even if it fails, exchanges and infrastructure providers may need to manage temporary deposit, withdrawal and chain-split risk around the activation window.

Bitcoin volatility stays crushed even as options traders keep buying protection
|
|
Spot bitcoin ETF inflows have returned, but derivatives traders are still leaning defensive, with puts at $62,000 and $63,000 among the most active contracts. Implied volatility has dropped to subdued levels, which means bitcoin can look calm while remaining vulnerable to an outsized move if macro data or liquidity shifts.

🚨 BREAKING: Bitcoin developers have flagged 85 critical bugs in what some are calling an “extremely bad situation.”
Before anyone panics…
This is exactly why Bitcoin has survived for over 17 years.
⚡ Bugs get found.
⚡ Developers review them.
⚡ The network gets stronger.
Open-source software means thousands of eyes are constantly looking for weaknesses before attackers can exploit them. That’s a feature, not a flaw.
If you’re new to Bitcoin, don’t confuse developers finding bugs with Bitcoin being broken.
The strongest systems are the ones that are constantly battle-tested.
Tick tock… next block. 🧡
