Meet Loupe, an AI-powered vulnerability scanner for open-source bitcoin projects. Attackers already use AI to find weaknesses. Maintainers should do the same.

Bitcoin Core, BDK, LDK, rust-bitcoin, Cashu, Jade, bitcoinj, and SRI are already onboard.

The search continues. If you’re an all-star developer and aspiring FOSS bitcoiner stuck in a monotonous big tech job who is eager for something freer, more flexible, and impactful, this is the role.

Hey Bitcoin Governance nerds, I put together a rough draft for an updated BIP process. Leave some feedback, maybe: https://t.co/yRd8k2pWB1

[Blockstream @Blockstream]

The ChillDKG BIP is currently in draft, and we're looking for community feedback!

Grant renewal. Daniela Brozzoni (@danielabrozzoni) is helping with BDK 1.0 both as a builder and maintainer. She’s also redesigning the BDK transaction builder, implementing the rust-miniscript planning module, and do you guys still read these updates? RT = Yes, Fav = No.

We made a very short documentary about the Lightning Development Kit, our big project these last couple of years. We wanted a puppet to perform @jack’s parts but settled for actual @jack: https://t.co/q6eW4PDuNW
