Here’s the part most people missed about Bitcoin Core v30: The OP_RETURN change wasn’t about Ordinals — it was about BitVM. Clementine needed ~144 bytes of anchor data and had to create unspendable Taproot outputs, permanently polluting the UTXO set. Core developers chose a

📘 Working on Chapter 5 of my upcoming book, How People Tried to Push Non-Transaction Data into Bitcoin. This chapter covers Counterparty — the first protocol to systematically use bare multisig as a data container. I’m documenting the engineering path: — OP_RETURN as

This whole thread is a great example of a recurring pattern in the OP_RETURN debate: Two groups are speaking from completely different layers of the Bitcoin stack. One group sees the system like this: “Contiguous data goes into OP_RETURN → so just limit OP_RETURN.” The other

Bear: “Bitcoin is dead.” Bitcoin: “Hold my taproot.” 😵‍💫👇 If you want the serious version behind the meme — 这里是我刚发的长文（历史＋工程＋金融三重角度）

New version is live. Chapters 6–8 are now included in the downloadable PDF/EPUB on Leanpub — covering: • Taproot key tweaking & internal key math • Merkle tree construction (4-leaf script tree) • Real testnet transactions and control-block analysis I’ll keep shipping

Great to see more Chinese-speaking engineers learning about the BOSS Challenge structure. Bridging global developers into Bitcoin open-source is one of the most important efforts for 2026. If you’re a Chinese engineer exploring Bitcoin Core, feel free to reach out — happy to

中文圈第一个 Bitcoin Optech Newsletter 解读｜第 2 期 我们将继续以 Twitter Space 的形式， 系统性解读 Bitcoin Optech Newsletter Weekly #384。 本期内容将重点覆盖： — 闪电网络相关的技术与安全问题 — Miniscript 的设计逻辑与使用场景 — Stratum V2 的进展与工程意义 ⸻ 🗓 时间 •

Shipped a new btcaaron update + a core_test experiment suite (with btcrun) focused on Taproot testing workflows. You can now: – run mutation matrices – compare policy vs consensus behavior – validate cross-instance consistency – treat Core as a preflight testing layer Designed

Just published: how RootScope reconstructs Taproot script paths — step by step, every intermediate hash exposed. TapLeaf → TapBranch → Merkle root → TapTweak → output key → bech32m address. Miss one step (wrong tag, wrong byte order, parity bit) and you get a silent
