Minority fork falls 18 blocks behind Bitcoin main chain

A minority fork emerged after Bitcoin block height 961,632, backed by BIP-110 supporters.

The BIP-110-supporting pool Roughnecks produced only two blocks, while the Bitcoin chain advanced to block 961,651.

The split coincided with Bitcoin’s mining difficulty adjusting to 127.48 T, slowing block production on the BIP-110 chain due to less hash power.
