I've recently noticed that many people are still a bit confused about the technical details of SegWit, especially regarding the BIP-141 specification. So I took some time to organize a relatively clear tracking guide.
Honestly, understanding how SegWit (Segregated Witness) works is quite necessary for those wanting to dive deeper into Bitcoin. The BIP-141 proposal essentially addresses issues with transaction data structures by separating signature data from the main transaction body, which optimizes block space utilization and leaves room for future extensions.
In addition to SegWit, there's also BIP-110, a temporary soft fork proposal mainly aimed at further optimizing data storage efficiency. Although these two proposals share a similar direction, their implementation mechanisms differ, and it's worth understanding each separately.
Speaking of data optimization, I also thought of projects like Dash, which have their own ideas on data processing. However, Bitcoin's approach still focuses more on improving efficiency while maintaining decentralization.
I've organized this tracking process into a step-by-step guide covering SegWit signal tracking and the core points related to BIP-110. If you want to understand these technical details, following the steps should help you connect the entire logic. If you're interested in on-chain data, Gate also provides various on-chain metrics and project market data, making it convenient to benchmark.
