ME News message: On April 4 (UTC+8), F2Pool co-founder Wang Chun posted on the X platform, clearly opposing Bitcoin BIP-110 and the proposed upgrade to the BIP-54 protocol. The core reason is opposition to forceful advancement in the manner of the kind of “bills bundling” pushed through by U.S. politicians. He pointed out that most of the issues being discussed currently have no real urgency: time-warp attacks provide no substantive benefit to miners; block validation efficiency has been greatly improved through libraries and hardware; forging confirmed transactions would require cracking SHA256, and if that were possible then BTC’s underlying security would already be compromised. Wang Chun believes none of these issues is enough to justify protocol changes—only “replay transactions” have repair value, and it is the one of the few changes worth implementing. (Source: PANews)
