Bitcoin Core Development
Saturday, August 31, 2024At the “Bitcoin Burg Academy” I talked about Bitcoin Core development to an non-technical audience. Often when I talk to non-technical Bitcoiners, they don’t really know much about the Bitcoin Core open-source software project but are very interested to learn more about it. In this talk, I covered the basics starting from the beginning with Satoshi, to the early years without Satoshi, to how Bitcoin Core development works now. I detail how Bitcoin Core developers communicate, I briefly introduce GitHub, Issues, PRs, and review, and I discuss what jobs maintainers have and how Developer Funding works.
My open-source work is currently funded by an OpenSats LTS grant. You can learn more about my funding and how to support my work on my funding page.
