Bitcoin Hard Fork CONFIRMED — What Happens Next?

BIP 110 stalled over the weekend without majority support from nodes, hash rate, businesses, or wallet software — and now Luke Dashjr is stepping away from Ocean Mining to focus on a proof-of-work hard fork that the hosts flatly call a new shitcoin. Meanwhile, over a million code repositories may be sitting on a vulnerable cryptography package, and the white-hat researchers trying to fix it are getting blocked by American AI tools. In this episode: • BIP 110 post-mortem: why the activation failed across every measured facet of the ecosystem — nodes, hash rate, exchanges, and wallet software — and what Simon Dixon's "Bitcoin worked as designed" take gets right • Ocean Mining controversy: the 18-hour window where some miners may have unknowingly had hash directed to the BIP 110 chain, and how Ocean responded with a 0.3 BTC rebate to affected miners • Luke Dashjr and Ocean's CTO both announce sabbaticals to pursue a proof-of-work hard fork — the hosts compare it directly to Bitcoin Cash and BSV • Rob Hamilton and Red Team blocked by OpenAI's Cyber Trust program mid-investigation despite prior approval, forcing a pivot to open-source Chinese models to continue responsible disclosure work • CryptoJS vulnerability: a dependency used across 19 million weekly downloads and over a million repositories flagged for insufficient entropy in cryptographic key generation • Strategy sells 1,690 Bitcoin while selling MSTR stock to prop up STRC; Marathon (Mara) sold 23,000 Bitcoin worth 1.6 billion in the first half of 2026 • BlackRock lowers its in-kind Bitcoin minimum for iBit from 25 million to 1 million dollars, which the hosts flag as suspiciously timed against the self-custody crisis • Luke Childs of Umbrel proposes a time-locked, two-device custody model called Anzin combining a phone, hardware wallet, and pre-signed monthly spending limits Watch the video version: https://youtu.be/jDUgWb12oKg
