Bitcoin Dev Kit

The Bitcoin Dev Kit project is building open source tools and libraries designed to be a solid foundation for cross-platform, descriptor based #bitcoin wallets.

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.

[Fully Noded - Dev @Fonta1n3]

Adding @bitcoindevkit to Fully Noded is a huge security upgrade, the underlying library is built in Rust, which is memory safe. Libwally, what FN currently uses is built in C and is not memory safe.

This means an attacker would be much less likely to extract private key information from your device if they stole it and jail break it.

I am currently refactoring the signing logic and will be releasing incremental updates to phase Libwally out altogether with the end goal to make @FullyNoded as secure as it can be.

Another benefit to BDK is it is descriptor wallet centric, so is FN and Bitcoin Core, making it a perfect match.

On top of that, the kind folks at BDK expose the Rust functionality to pure swift meaning I don’t have to write a custom wrapper for the underlying code.

As the end user you won’t notice much, but under the hood there will be significant improvements in the coming updates.

The major user facing benefit will be full taproot and miniscript compatibility, with the caveat that you utilize HD descriptors.

v2.1.0 coming in hot!

[Matthew @matthewramsden]

it's gets more rad: an engineer from @blocks bitkey team contributed this specific code to bdk-ffi, that @thunderB__ then hustled to port to a different release for @peachbitcoin

@blocks <-> @bitcoindevkit <-> @peachbitcoin

free open source software.
