1/4 Building a Bitcoin executor at @goNativeCC in Move on @SuiNetwork means you get really familiar with the Bitcoin quirks.
An interesting example is signature encoding. How an early design choice became an immutable consensus rule
The winner of my May impossible challenge and the $10K in SUI prize is @goNativeCC! 🥳
I asked for a full BTC node on Sui. Had many thoughts around how strict I should be with the word *full*, but… they delivered an early stage SPV light node instead which stole my ❤️ re the potential.
I softly reviewed their code, even left feedback in their github for improving their RIPEMD160 Move smart contract implementation: they fixed stuff in record time, fully responsive, real progress toward native BTC on Sui. Come on Kostas they deserve it, that’s the style of devs you want to see.
Unlike others, I keep my word. Congrats, Native, you deserve it! 🔥
🚀 @goNativeCC just implemented RIPEMD-160 purely on Sui Move, unlocking functional SPV-based, bridge-less Bitcoin clients natively on-chain.
They've also proven you can do everything in @SuiNetwork Move!
Bitcoin ↔️ Sui just got a lot closer...

4/4 Getting these details right is what makes cross-chain work so fascinating. Move DER parsing implementation for the curious ones: https://t.co/igUB1TDqRr

3/4 I asked myself the question WHY. From what I was able to find on the internet is that Satoshi used the standard OpenSSL library at the time, which outputted signatures in this verbose DER format by default.
@goNativeCC I’m evaluating Native’s deliverable for my May’s monthly challenge of $10K in Sui prize 🏆. June 7 is the voting with our solution engs and announce Monday
Here we go: our Native "Trustless Sui Bitcoin Node" - v0.1 (alpha) released for the @kostas challenge!
It allows to trustlessly and permissionlessly execute #Bitcoin on @SuiNetwork 🚀 Build on Natives' Zero Trust Architecture!

"Bitcoin and DeFi mismatch: why BTCFi needs solid and robust L1"
In 13 minutes, our co-founder @RobertZarembaIT broke down:
– why BTCFi is the most important thing for DeFi
– why bridges are broken
– why @Suinetwork + @ikadotxyz + @goNativeCC is poised to lead BTCFi

All packed.
The entire Native squad is en route to Dubai for Sui Base Camp + Token2049.
Our co-founder @RobertZarembaIT is speaking at Base Camp breaking down why Bitcoin belongs in DeFi and why @SuiNetwork is the place to make it happen.
If you're in Dubai, come say GM.
TIL about https://t.co/GAApxxujc0. It corrects typos in your previous command. Just type fuck (or whatever you configure it to). Saves a surprising amount of time and frustration ^^
I'm super proud about the @SuiCommunity, @Sui_Summit for calling out the Babylon propaganda 💪
Let me quote @d3h3d_:
"this is exactly why you should be bullish sui. No bs. It’s Sui."
1. On @SuiNetwork - only the Sui validators provide security. Period 🧑🏭
2. In Sui, the only PoS token is $SUI. There is absolutely no need to change that.
3. Sui doesn't depend on BTC nor Babylon delegations. It's the most robust and sophisticated L1 with one of the strongest validator network! 🪨
4. The biggest BS that we need to call out:
Babylon doesn't offer a true security: slashes (post-factum) the BTC delegators, but not the validators 🤯
y’all know i have only good things to say about sui’s strategic choices and direction, but this is so so bad.
let’s start with the basics - there’s a 0% chance this message is technically correct.
if you understand how sui consensus works and how babylon works you know this is 100% false. sui will never be secured by babylon, it will reduce the level of security, make finality time way longer and completely decimate the value of the sui token - probably the three most important things that sui innovated on and spent so much time and effort to redefine the state of the art in and basically lead the market today.
this is probably just a really bad marketing messaging choice by someone at sui, that was pushed by babylon to enhances the babylon scam - no one wants to use babylon, but now retail investors who have no idea how things technically work will think sui is using them.
i hope someone wakes up and realizes how awful this is and delete this tweet.
We @goNativeCC built and deployed a Bitcoin Light Client on @SuiNetwork. Anyone can use it.
Reading @VitalikButerin blog got me considering the terminology - should we refer to it as a 'public good', or does the 'open source' fit better?
