@michaelborglin (Co-founder & CPO at Surge) is headed to the Annual Bitcoin Ski Summit in Jackson Hole (Mar 5–8), an invite-only gathering of Bitcoin operators, builders, and long-term capital in the Tetons. We’re excited to trade notes on bitcoin-native credit: how to unlock liquidity without giving up sovereignty, “don’t trust, verify” all the way down. If you’ll be there, say hi 👋

Our first podcast episode is live! 🚀⚡️ Huge thanks to @PresidioBitcoin for the opportunity and to all the PB members for the incredible support and love you've shown Surge so far. 🎧 Listen in:
Presidio Bitcoin@PresidioBitcoin

Our newest installment of Built in the Presidio is live! Members Yash Belavadi (@yash_belavadi) and Michael Borglin (@michaelborglin) explain why they’re building Surge (@surge_credit) - a non-custodial way to borrow against BTC - and how it works. The conversation also covers why Bitcoin lending keeps drifting back toward centralization, lessons from previous centralized blowups (e.g., BlockFi, FTX), and new tailwinds for the vertical. (0:00) Why Bitcoin lending keeps breaking (1:50) Yash & Michael's backgrounds and pivot into Bitcoin lending (6:30) Why past models failed (13:00) Why now? (regulatory & institutional momentum) (25:35) What Surge is building: roadmap, liquidity bootstrapping, native BTC (31:00) How it works: user journey & safety

Merry Christmas 🎄 This year, we're thankful for the builders, node runners, cypherpunks, and believers who continue to push Bitcoin forward. At Surge, we're grateful for the opportunity to build Bitcoin-native tools that respect self-custody, censorship resistance, and transparency. Here's to a strong finish to the year and an even stronger year ahead. ⚡️₿

Quiet lately for a reason 😶‍🌫️ Past 4 weeks: nonstop grind shipping the build, fixing edges, internal tests with a tight group. Feedback’s been solid! Private beta opens next week 🎉 Want priority access (earlier wave, smaller group)? Reply “beta” or 🔥 below. Limited spots to keep it focused.

Happy Thanksgiving! Grateful for our team, the ₿itcoin community, our investors, and everyone supporting this journey. ₿itcoin is a humanity-level innovation and we’re thankful for the chance to build on-chain tools that uphold self-sovereignty, censorship resistance, and transparency. ⚡️

Our logo is inspired by the Bitcoin block! It reflects our promise: to keep Bitcoin on-chain, without sacrificing experience. For Bitcoiners, on-chain has often meant bad UX. We’re here to change that. ⚡️ Surge : Bitcoin-native Credit Line 🎥 Brand Showreel, what you think?

Kakarot has been an incredible adventure, I'm extremely grateful for these past three years. I've learnt more in this short time than in any period before. To everyone who has been with us in this journey, thank you. Now another chapter begins, in the land of privacy, as part of the Zama team. I'm hyped, I'm bullish. The dream lives on.

When you finally think debates over, "Reduced Data Temporary Softfork" until block 987424 proposes adding limits back on OP_RETURN, which were earlier removed. Feels more legal than technical - to prove the point that some are not happy about the removed limits in the first place. Btw this still can't fully eliminate CSAM vectors and what people want to put on Bitcoin.
Peter Todd@peterktodd

This. BIP-444 creates a “C-SCAM” attack where you use censoring reorgs to double spend.

We’re excited to share that @alliancedao is backing Encifher. 18 months ago, we were just two people asking: "Can DeFi exist without giving up privacy?" Today we’re building the privacy engine for DeFi, starting on @Solana Accelerate. With Privacy.
