👉 EMCD on BIP-110

BIP-110 is back in focus as its planned signaling window approaches.

If activated, BIP-110 would introduce tighter rules for storing non-financial data on Bitcoin for about a year. The changes would affect Ordinals-related transactions, among others.

At EMCD, we don’t see how BIP-110 can add any real value to the network. Since Ordinals emerged, miners have adapted, the fee market has discovered a new balance, and the Bitcoin network has continued to operate as usual.

With less than 1% of the hashrate signaling for change and no clear beneficiary, the case for altering Bitcoin’s consensus rules is hard to stand by.

Protecting Bitcoin’s “purity” isn’t a strong enough reason either. For now, BIP-110 seems more like a political initiative than a practical one.

EMCD Mining Pool will not signal support for BIP-110.

Bitcoin has no boardroom. So who gets the final say ⁉️

🖤 At Mining Disrupt, Michael Jerlis, CEO of EMCD, will present:

Bitcoin Governance: Who Really Decides the Future? Lessons from BIP-110

As the August signaling window approaches, BIP-110 raises an important question: who benefits from a rule that adds nothing to hashprice or block revenue, while placing the implementation risk squarely on miners?

If the answer is “no” to 3 or more questions, your mining farm could be at risk.

After the halving, even small inefficiencies have become costly: high electricity rates, aging ASICs, overheating, rejected shares, or inaccurate ROI calculations can quickly reduce mining performance.

🏭 We created a free Post-Halving Survival Guide to help miners assess their operations and identify opportunities for improvement.

Inside the guide:

♦️ A 6-question mining farm survival checklist
♦️ ROI calculator for different mining scenarios
♦️ Electricity cost and efficiency benchmarks
♦️ Practical ways to reduce hidden losses

📰 What happened in mining last week
EMCD Digest | July 13–19, 2026

A new week is underway, but first, a quick look at the developments that shaped Bitcoin mining over the past seven days.

♦️ Global hashrate fell 6.3% quarter over quarter

The 30-day average fell to about 940 EH/s for a second consecutive quarter as low hashprice pushed less-efficient machines offline.

♦️ Foundry opened a hashrate-weighted vote on BIP-110

The pool will support the proposed limits on non-monetary Bitcoin data only if Yes votes exceed 51% of participating hashrate.

♦️ Keel advanced a 96 MW mining-to-AI conversion project

The company received local approval to consolidate power from three Québec mining sites into an AI and HPC campus, while provincial approval is still required.

♦️ Texas heat cut Olenox fleet utilization

June utilization fell to about 67% as the company increased curtailment and low-power operation at its Texas hosting site.

♦️ A Bitaxe solo miner found a block after eight hours

A solo miner using the 995.2 GH/s device received 3.1382 BTC, compared with an estimated average wait of 16,000–18,300 years at that hashrate.
