BitScript

Browser-based ₿itcoin script integrated development environment | Getting Bitcoiners off the sidelines & into the stack - why not you?

@ECBSJ Close but quite! Look closest at the image ;)

WHEW! It’s been a while but we’re excited to confirm that you’ll be hearing from us much more frequently as we have a slate of articles, features, & improvements ready to ship.

We’ll leave you with a preview of an article ~coming~ soon.

Any guesses on what it’s about??

One the experimental but not often discussed signature schemes 👇

Both sides seem p entrenched, would you support a BIP aiming for the middle?

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

Would you support a BIP that:

1. Decreases OP_RETURN to 256 bytes
2. Removes the SegWit discount
3. Activates OP_CTV, OP_CSFS, & OP_CAT?

Curious, if not, why not?

Gib some visibility if you can plz 🙏, tryna see something:

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

Chad “we should build Bitcoin how we want” Gloria vs. Virgin “capitalism is evil” Luke.

(I’m sorry but if the former bothers you more than the latter you’re a deeply unserious Bitcoiner & should immediately sell)

[BitScript @bitscriptapp]

We’ll communicate here more frequently on what’s coming down the pipeline.

For now we want to give a ~warm~ embrace to many of the folks along the way that gave us feedback, introduced us to the community, & generally had our back - a deep thank you 🙏 to the following:

@niftynei @wsfoxley @bergealex4 @corcoranwill @PlebLab @AlexLi98 @miketwenty1 @libdesatoshi

[BitScript @bitscriptapp]

Exhilarated that we can ~finally~ talk about this 🙌

Deep, deep sense of gratitude for the community we’ve built & the supporters along the way.

While this failed as a business, we’ve proudly made BitScript FOSS to continue the mission: onboard the next 1000 Bitcoin developers!

👩‍🏫 The Global South is underrepresented in Bitcoin development

BitScript (@bitscriptapp) trains devs across Latin America & Africa to build #Bitcoin tools via a browser-based ₿itcoin Script IDE.

With HRF’s support, it’s diversifying Bitcoin development to reflect global needs

[BitScript @bitscriptapp]

We…think there’s a better way than this 🤨

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

I did it guys, I know *exactly* how we're going to solve the education problem in Bitcoin:

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

If you’re a SWE interested in working on Bitcoin (or crypto), one of the biggest mental shifts is to switch from:

"How can I fetch / pass in X"

To

"How can I verify / proof X”

Critical intangible. Start with digital signatures & Merkle proofs.

[BitScript @bitscriptapp]

Stay alert, stay secure 🫡

Large NPM compromise happening right now.

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

The entire TL right now shitposting through one of the worst compromises we’ve seen to date 🙃

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

One of my favorite tricks when looking at bytes in Bitcoin is to look at the *length* of the buffer.

Surprisingly, that alone usually reveals useful info:

20-bytes -> most recent hash was RIPEMD160
32-bytes -> most recent hash was SHA256

[Setzeus 🇺🇸 @setzeus]

Take a break from Core vs Knots & brush up on digital signatures.

By *far* where the majority of Bitcoin innovation actually takes place, here’s a quick list to get you started👇

ECDSA
Multisig
Schnorr
MuSig2
Frost
Roast
Adaptor
Blind
Lamport
Quantam-resistant

Which P2P feature matters most for Bitcoin’s security?
Peer discovery | Block relay | Tx relay | Misbehavior handling | other

Reply with your pick 👇

[BitScript @bitscriptapp]

Bitcoin’s P2P network has no central server.
It’s a self-organizing gossip system where every node plays both student & teacher.
Here’s how a node goes from zero → fully synced → keeping Bitcoin alive ⚡🌐

10/
From peer discovery to banning bad actors, Bitcoin’s P2P network is a carefully engineered, attack-aware gossip mesh.
No servers. No leaders. Just code + cryptography + incentives.
