ICYMI: @Blockstream shares an update on Liquid’s development roadmap. 0-conf and @bitcoincoreorg parity Quantum-ready testnet by EOY BitVM-style 1-of-n bridge research Oracle, DEX and other DeFi infrastructure Review the full roadmap. 👇

Although the BTC based on SHA256 is more valuable, in the long run it is doomed to fail. However, I know who is more decentralized. So Blake2b BTC is definitely superior. #XBT# #BTC# #Bitcoin# #BitcoinCore# #BTCB2# #BitcoinKnots# #SHA256# #Blake2b#

BITCOIN CORE PATCHES THREE BUGS, INCLUDING ONE THAT LETS ATTACKERS CRASH NON-LINUX NODES Fixes are in 29.5, 30.4, 31.2 and 32.1. The storage bug remains on 32-bit systems and nodes using FAT32. Read more here:

Bitcoin Core just disclosed two memory exhaustion vulnerabilities, both rated medium severity. Fixes are live in versions 29.5, 30.4, 31.2, and 32.1. The first allows a malicious peer to cause unbounded memory growth by pretending not to support BIP31 nonced pings. Affects all platforms. The second lets an attacker send TCP urgent data to bypass backpressure limits and crash any Windows, macOS, or BSD node. Linux is not affected. Both were discovered by Project Loupe, an LLM-based code scanner built by Elias Rohrer at Spiral. Update your nodes.

Bitcoin Core 31.1 remains the stable release as a new private-broadcast privacy fix awaits its 31.x backport as of Oct. 8. The repair is merged into 32.x code, but 32.0 has only test candidates. Private broadcast is off by default. via @akibablade

Bitcoin Core has patched a narrow signing flaw that could let a payment’s recipient change without invalidating the signature. The fix is in its development branch; a production release containing it is not yet confirmed.

Bitcoin Core and the community are unwilling to admit that the lack of a limit on message board bytes is a bug. Like a Trojan horse, they argue that the failure to update to fix the bug in a timely manner is because they cannot censor what data people are putting into Bitcoin, which they claim is the spirit of Bitcoin's decentralization. I believe that Bitcoin is now striving to become a global data center, not a currency. Bitcoin has been parasitized and integrated with the values ​​of Bitcoin users (BSVs). BSVs have taken over and parasitized Bitcoin in another way. Most investors who claim to hold Bitcoin and believe in its merits don't care about these issues; their reason for optimism is the religious belief that Bitcoin's price has been rising continuously.
