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

BlockBeats News, January 25th, according to Cointelegraph, the number of Bitcoin nodes supporting Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 110 (BIP-110) has risen to 2.38%. The proposal is a temporary soft fork that limits the single transaction data size at the consensus layer.

According to The Bitcoin Portal data, out of 24,481 nodes, 583 are running BIP-110, with the primary node software implementation running this soft fork proposal being Bitcoin Knots.

BIP-110 limits the transaction output size to 34 bytes and sets the OP_RETURN data limit to 83 bytes. According to the description on the proposal's GitHub page, this temporary soft fork will be deployed for 1 year and may be extended or modified after expiration.

OP_RETURN is a script code that allows users to embed arbitrary data. Since the latest release of the most widely used Bitcoin node software, Bitcoin Core 30, this feature has been a focal point of intense debate in the Bitcoin community.

The OP_RETURN data limit was originally set to 83 bytes, but Bitcoin Core developers unilaterally removed this restriction in Bitcoin Core 30. This change stemmed from a controversial code merge request proposed in April 2025, which was widely opposed by the Bitcoin community.
