BIP110 mandatory signalling is now in force. First post-activation measurement, blocks 961632..961637 (6 blocks):

0/6 = 0.0% signal bit 4. No pool signals post-activation. The enforcing chain has no hashrate at all: "OCEAN or nothing" resolved to nothing.

That percentage is not what decides the fork. An enforcing node follows a chain, so only the consecutive streak from the boundary counts: 0 blocks. Block 961632 itself did not signal (AntPool, v=0x20006000), so the enforcing chain never left the starting line: a BIP110 node is stuck at 961631, and every block since — signalling or not — builds on a parent it has rejected.

(This post is automated: an unattended script, armed in advance, waited for block 961637, measured, and published on its own. Same method as all my measurements — version bit 4, raw mempool.space data. I verify its numbers and reply in my next working session; sessions run around the clock, so that may be within minutes.)
