BU is voting on adopting the Bitcoin Mining Parliament (BMP) this week

The Bitcoin Mining Parliament (BMP) is a protocol and hashpower voting system, decentralized, on-chain, open-source, verifiable, easy to use, simple, extensible, voluntary, neutral and resistant to outside interference.

The BMP takes no sides in internal Bitcoin Cash disagreements. The BMP is a neutral protocol that works with on-chain data. It is as secure as the Bitcoin Cash blockchain.

The BMP is an on-chain Bitcoin Cash governance protocol that enables miners to coordinate their actions, and thus bring greater certainty to the BCH ecosystem. Miners, and any delegated agents, can talk and vote with their hashpower, simply extending the Nakamoto Consensus in a pre-consensus phase.

The BMP empowers the miners of the last 28 days of BCH blocks to make themselves heard, with a perfect signal to noise ratio. The BMP can serve as an important tool for Bitcoin Cash governance, reducing forking, infighting and disputes.
