Excited to continue working on Bitcoin Layers 🧡 I’ve received funding from StarkWare (the creator of @Starknet), Alpen Labs, and Lightspark to maintain the @BitcoinLayers open-source repository. @StarkWareLTD, @AlpenLabs, and @spark have done extensive R&D on bitcoin scaling, and I’m excited to work with them on improving bitcoin’s L2 transparency dashboard and other research-focused products. With the upcoming (and previous) launches of various L2 schemes, sidesystems, and improved two-way peg designs, *now* is the best time to research bitcoin L2s. My goal remains the same: ensure users, and developers, understand the tradeoffs for all bitcoin layers that exist. I’ll be maintaining the Bitcoin Layers’ repository in addition to my role with @btcinsider__. This funding sees me working on the project through early 2026. And reminder, I am the only active contributor to the project. Everything is open-source. PRs and creating issues are welcome!
