We’ve been on a side-quest, and we have good news from the other side! 40 million Kenyans now have a bitcoin Lightning Address! They didn’t need to sign up for one because they had it this entire time, attached to the phone number in their pocket! Try it: send bitcoin to 0717252303@bitcoin.co.ke (254 is optional). The BTC arrives as KES in their M-Pesa. ⚡ EVERY M-Pesa number works. All 40,000,000. Wallets with LUD-09 support give you a nice clickable link to see your M-Pesa receipt. For example: bitcoin.co.ke/receipt/6528a4…

Throwing it back to our 2025 Year in Review. 2025 was about strengthening the foundation for decentralized Bitcoin development across Africa and the broader Global Majority. After several years of experimentation and iteration, the year marked a shift toward more structured execution; deepening the programs, partnerships, and systems that support open‑source contributors across the Bitcoin ecosystem. Throughout the year, we focused on building and strengthening the developer pipeline, from discovery and education to mentorship, grants, and long‑term contribution opportunities. Across our initiatives, more than 3,800 developers engaged with Btrust programs and ecosystem activities.

This month, we're celebrating five years of Sebastian Falbesoner (@theStack) working on Bitcoin Core and libsecp256k1 at Brink. Sebastian started with often unglamorous test work, steadily widening his scope, and eventually stepping up to steward impactful privacy proposals…

Fully-static, reproducible, release binaries for Bitcoin Core, have been a long-time goal of mine, and we are getting are closer to making them a reality. I've produced test binaries from a PR of mine (#25573), and am looking for feedback, questions, and hopefully testing on various systems or obscure platforms.

Congratulations @_frankomosh 🎊⚡️
Btrust@btrustteam

@_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.

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…

Join Brink in celebrating Niklas Gögge’s (@dergoegge) four years as a Bitcoin Core developer at Brink. Niklas has persistently (and quietly) made Bitcoin harder to break by breaking it himself. We’re grateful to have him doing it...

It’s time for bitcoiners to step up and build. You don’t need to know anything about software development anymore, you just need to know how to write words! We have a golden opportunity to build out agentic payments based on open money, rather than letting agentic payments be captured by megacorps yet again. But we’re squandering it arguing about useless crap instead of building. Play with openclaw, give it a bitcoin wallet (moneydevkit makes this super easy! Also Lexe and phoenixd!), make it do things. If it fails to do what you want, go fix it! Have your agent build that bitcoin domain reseller, that bitcoin airline ticket reseller, or whatever it is you want! Bitcoin doesn’t just happen, it’s built. Join in.

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.

Another case of cross-architecture non-determinism. Running a Windows cross-compiler, on x86_64 and aarch64, produces this difference in assembly, from the following (minified) code. Running on riscv matches x86_64. Noticed while updating our release compiler from GCC 13 to 14.
