The BIP-110 branch, having split from the main Bitcoin network, has fallen behind by more than 300 blocks. It has inherited the mining difficulty of the primary chain, which stands at 127.48 trillion, and cannot lower this difficulty until it completes a full cycle of 2016 blocks, reaching a height of #963,647. Predictions for how long this will take vary widely, ranging from 350 days to 25 years, depending on the assumed share of hash rate; currently, the fork represents only a fraction of the computing power of Bitcoin's blockchain.
