We’re excited to announce the Q1 Btrust Developer Grant recipients, our largest cohort to date. Ten Bitcoin open-source developers have been awarded grants, including six starter grant recipients and four open-source cohort members, including two renewals and two promotions from starter to long-term grants. This cohort also marks a couple of important firsts: support for Cashu development and the introduction of a dedicated research role within the open-source cohort. This builds on our work across the stack, from core protocol development to wallets, privacy tools, and user-facing applications. Learn more about Q1 recipients and what they’re working on here: x.com/i/status/20393…


@_frankomosh contributes to @bitcoincoreorg with a focus on fuzz testing, networking, and validation logic in consensus-critical systems. He works on improving fuzz testing infrastructure and QA coverage to detect bugs earlier and strengthen overall network reliability. As part of his grant, he will expand fuzzing across key subsystems such as P2P networking and validation, design new fuzz harnesses, and run long-duration fuzzing campaigns. He also maintains bip353‑rs, a Rust implementation of DNS-based payment instructions with DNSSEC validation, contributing to improved payment infrastructure.

USDC on base seems far more common for 402 payments now than Bitcoin. Recently, even Stripe joined the bandwagon. That’s a centralized stablecoin on a permissioned chain. Agents are starting to use fiat. It’s a huge loss, and in a race, many aren’t even aware that it exists. The scam coins are marching on, and even fiat is evolving. Where are the Bitcoin solutions that attract real users? Which other concept other than buying and selling Bitcoin has actually broken out of the bubble and made it to the mainstream? Bitcoin doesn’t just happen. These missing solutions need to be built by someone. Reject the “Bitcoin wins by hodling” narrative. The devs and entrepreneurs are what keep this project alive and keep marching forward. It’s not the scammy influencers, not the psychotic drama queens, the child-like infighting, or incompetent idiots dancing on the graves of word-class devs leaving Bitcoin. I hope the bear market flushes all that crap away, and we can get back to building stuff instead of tearing it down.
