It's time to commune & communicate on covenants. If you want to learn the basics, better understand proposals, & ask any questions, stop on by! 👇
We'll have active covenant builders & BIP authors stop on by such as @salvatoshi @matthewvuk2 & many more.

btcpayserver v2.4.1 (maintained by @NicolasDorier), is out with an exciting list of changes:
Features: BIP329 label import added & invoices now include comments.
Fixes: interrupted Boltcard payments & LNDHub not enabled by default
Improvements: global search bar results
Also calling @reardencode @matthewvuk2 @stevenroose3 @darosior we're planning a Space to further discuss basics, progress, & proposals & would it love if ya'll can make it!
Both sides seem p entrenched, would you support a BIP aiming for the middle?

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)

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
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

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.

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
