What BIP-110's Failure Means

You're missing the point-- even if you get node count up to 90%, the mining pools will just ignore you, or collude against you

And why would that be a bad thing? Why do you with your $100 hardware home node and free software feel entitled to having the same influence over the protocol as entities who invested hundreds of millions of dollars to secure this network? Do you want socialism or capitalism?

Central control is the death of every digital currency... some sooner some later, that is why! 5 pools colluding == 99.5% centralization this is not acceptable in a decentralized protocol

Mining is an free open market, majority hashrate “colluding”is called consensus and it has always worked like this Don’t like it? BIP110 buddies can purchase machines and put in PoW to compete Bitcoin is not PoS node runners, it’s not a democracy, it’s capitalism and it works

because mining nodes follow what nodes want they get the btc as reward. unfortunately they no longer follow what nodes do, therefore pow change is inevitable. btw. dont worry you can still enjoy your bpedochain....
