This morning activation of the BIP 91 protocol took place. Recall that this offer is for the modernization of the bitcoin network, after activation of which all the units that do not support SegWit will bow out.
Several sources indicate the achieved percentage of support for miners - 97.7.
Actually BIP 91 is a modified version of the plan for improving bitcoin SegWit2x. This plan was supported by many well-known companies, incl. Mining pools, and their decision was backed by the so-called. "New York" agreement. BIP 91 is also compatible with the BIP 148 protocol (UASF) - another proposal for upgrading btc (the very first plan for SegWit).
The above means that now the BTC1 protocol (SegWit2x) is likely to be adopted, and the partitioning of the network bitcoin (fork = fork) due to the activation of BIP 148 will probably be avoided.
But as long as there is a possibility of the emergence of hardcore due to the plan to increase the size of the blocks to two megabytes, which is also provided by SegWit2x. It takes an additional three months to resize.
The number of the block where the BIP protocol is 91 - 477120, after which the number 477792 should be considered, as well as the numbers 479808 and 481824 - in the middle and the end of the next month, respectively. The number of the block 479808 must correspond to the fixation SegWit.
The synchronization of BIP 91 began on Friday night and more than 90% of the computing power supported it at that time.
