Floresta’s Q4 2026 roadmap is out. Goal: a welcoming project. Stronger tests, dependable CI, automation that gives devs time back and logs that explain what the node is doing. As code gets cheaper to write, verifying it matters more.

Anyone with a >2Gbps internet willing to help us testing something? We don't need any particularly beefy machine, 8GB RAM/Disk 4-Core CPU manufactured after 2015 is fine (I think even SBCs will do). Cc @JoseSK999

I traced the Bitcoin Core multiprocess binaries (bitcoin-node and bitcoin-wallet) and wrote 3 posts on how it works under the hood. viniciuscestari.dev/posts/in… Turns out I wrote 3 posts to explain one line of C++, because of everything it hides.

Building a new Bitcoin node implementation is one challenge. Making it reliable enough for others to build on is another. Proud to support the work behind @getfloresta as the project enters this next stage.
