When the threshold of 55% blocks signaling for bip110 in a single window (2016 blocks) has not been reached, any block that is not signaling for BIP110 after August 1st will be rejected by the activation client, basically splitting themself of, or even coming to a complete halt if there's no hashpower. Looking at the node counts and virtue signaling on X, this is going to be interesting to watch.https://github.com/dathonohm/bitcoin/commit/10bb4479dff1b9cb833795df5e6fab27c71def6d#diff-97c3a52bc5fad452d82670a7fd291800bae20c7bc35bb82686c2c0a4ea7b5b98R4652UPDATES/RELEASESPhoenixd Dashboard: New Analytics Page- https://x.com/_miguelmedeiros/status/2013989529196060902Bithypha: New auto-analysis - display all taint paths between transactions, clusters, and addresses.- https://x.com/bithypha/status/2014650957611561356Envoy 2.2.1: Prime Connectivity- https://x.com/FOUNDATIONdvcs/status/2014679768365482491MyNymBox- DNS Management and Client Portal Merged (https://x.com/mynymbox/status/2015141559239356477)- New Docs Site (https://docs.mynymbox.io/)- Tons of New Templates (https://mynymbox.io/apptemplates)Clawdbot: The New AI Frenzy- https://x.com/damianplayer/status/2015105669620269373MapleAI: Connect Your Clawdbot- https://x.com/marksuman/status/2015653223504269602Crypto Privacy Tracker: Tracking private cryptocurrency value across coins and protocols- https://x.com/cryptoprvcy/status/2014439254592462999Peach: BTC Payserver Plugin- https://x.com/peachbitcoin/status/2015791375854321702Zeus: Adds Stealth Mode- https://x.com/ZeusLN/status/2015782022439190639EDUCATIONEscape the Technocracy: 3D Printing for Radicals Course- https://escapethetechnocracy.com/product-3d-printing-video-course/Cryptography Mathematics Course by Fundamentals ( https://cryptography-xi.vercel.app/)Sparrow Wallet Course by Fundamentals (https://sparrow-deploy.vercel.app/)HELP GET SAMOURAI A PARDONSIGN THE PETITION ----> https://www.change.org/p/stand-up-for-freedom-pardon-the-innocent-coders-jailed-for-building-privacy-tools DONATE TO THE FAMILIES ----> https://www.givesendgo.com/billandkeonneSUPPORT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ---> https://billandkeonne.org/VALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME STICKERS @ https://www.ungovernablemisfits.com/shop/FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today’s tech conglomerates.
