\nLuke Dashjr Removed as Bitcoin BIP Editor Following (BIP)-110 Fork Failure\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Bitcoin developer Luke Dashjr<\/a>, who backed the failed Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP)-110<\/a>, has been removed from his position as an editor of such proposals for the development of the Bitcoin network.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The decision, voted on by other Bitcoin developers, was posted<\/a> on the BIP Github Sunday. The BIP Github page, separate from Bitcoin Core\u2019s repository, is where developers can make proposals to change Bitcoin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dashjr called the decision \u201can abuse of power by Core,\u201d adding<\/a>: \u201cThey have no authority to do so.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is just an abuse of power by Core.
They have no authority to do so.<\/p>\n

The motion read: \u201cOver the past several years, Luke has been at the center of many contentious disputes within the Bitcoin ecosystem, and this week a new forkcoin spun out of Bitcoin under his leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n

It added: \u201cMore specifically, Luke was heavily involved in the creation and implementation of BIP110, the proposal that led to the fork. During that process, he also exercised his authority as a BIP Editor inconsistently with the established editorial process unfairly favoring the proposal he was involved in.\u201d<\/p>\n

The post further added that Luke has otherwise made hardly any contributions to the day-to-day work of the BIP Editors and \u201cexercised his editorial privileges in a manner that raises conflict-of-interest concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dashjr is one of Bitcoin Core\u2019s earliest contributors but clashed with the network\u2019s main developers \u2014 and wider community \u2014 after he became one of the biggest supporters of (BIP)-110, a Bitcoin softfork<\/a> aimed at reducing spam on the Bitcoin network.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The wider Bitcoin industry opposed the proposal and it failed spectacularly when attempting to change Bitcoin consensus rules during the weekend, picking up only a fraction of the mining power of the main Bitcoin network.<\/p>\n

Dashjr on Monday wrote<\/a> on X that he was taking a sabbatical as chairman and CTO from Ocean, a mining company that supported the fork, and would dedicate his efforts to \u201cworking on Bitcoin and open-source projects to support Bitcoin.\u201d<\/p>\n

The (BIP)-110 proposal failed to get consensus Saturday when the nodes that support the proposal broke away from the main network and produced a new, out of consensus blockchain that people had been warning about.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new chain stalled after two blocks were mined by enthusiasts and has gone nowhere since Saturday as hashpower from miners has been dedicated to the main Bitcoin network.\u00a0<\/p>\n
