The percentage of Bitcoin nodes supporting BIP-110 has risen to 2.38%

According to Cointelegraph, the number of Bitcoin nodes supporting Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 110 (BIP-110) has risen to 2.38%. This proposal is a temporary soft fork that limits the amount of data per transaction at the consensus level.

According to data from The Bitcoin Portal, out of 24,481 nodes, 583 are running BIP-110, with the main node software implementation for this soft fork proposal being Bitcoin Knots. BIP-110 limits the size of transaction outputs to 34 bytes and sets the OPRETURN data limit to 83 bytes. According to the proposal's description on its GitHub page, this temporary soft fork will be deployed for 1 year, after which it may be extended or modified. OPRETURN is a script code that allows users to embed arbitrary data.

Since the release of the latest version of the most widely used Bitcoin node software—Bitcoin Core 30—this feature has been a focal point of intense debate within the Bitcoin community. The OP_RETURN data limit was originally set to 83 bytes, but Bitcoin Core developers unilaterally removed this restriction in the Bitcoin Core 30 version. This change stemmed from a controversial code merge request first proposed in April 2025, which was widely opposed by the Bitcoin community.
