According to @BitMEXResearch, the bitnod.es BIP110 activation monitoring chart shows the Bitcoin network has entered the second signalling epoch with no miner signalling recorded so far.

The Christmas-themed progress chart was also inscribed on-chain and is viewable via Ordiscan inscription dd4c5906a402962822dd9d76dba3afd49fa9baea412bbd94d4a827389b694e9di0.

For traders, versionbits-style deployments require sufficient miner signalling within a difficulty-epoch window to activate, so the current lack of signalling means activation cannot complete in this window unless signalling begins and reaches the threshold.

According to BitMEX Research, there has been significant technological progress in quantum-resistant signature schemes that Bitcoin could use, as reported in a Dec 23, 2025 thread (source: BitMEX Research, Dec 23, 2025). BitMEX Research shared a chart showing the signature sizes in bytes and the dates these schemes were proposed for Bitcoin, providing concrete data points for assessing potential on-chain data overhead if any scheme is later evaluated by developers (source: BitMEX Research, Dec 23, 2025). The post does not announce any activation, adoption, or timeline, indicating no immediate protocol catalyst from this update alone for BTC price action (source: BitMEX Research, Dec 23, 2025).
