Rust has become a crucial language in Bitcoin development, offering security, memory safety, and high performance. Whether you want to contribute to Bitcoin Core, BDK, LDK, or other Rust-based Bitcoin projects, mastering Rust is essential.

That’s why we’re launching Rust for Bitcoiners, a 4-6 week intensive track designed to help developers gain practical experience with Rust and apply it to Bitcoin development.

This pathway covers:

✅ Fundamentals of Rust programming; ownership, borrowing, memory safety.

✅ How Rust is used in Bitcoin development; exploring projects like BDK & LDK.

✅ Building Bitcoin-related projects using Rust.

✅ Best practices for writing secure, efficient Rust code for Bitcoin applications.

This isn’t just a Rust bootcamp. It’s a focused track for developers who want to apply Rust to real Bitcoin use cases.

We’re launching the first-ever Rust for Bitcoiners cohort soon, bringing together developers eager to master Rust for Bitcoin development. Participants will:

🔹 Work in structured peer-learning groups.

🔹 Engage in hands-on exercises & Rust-based Bitcoin projects.

🔹 Get mentorship from experienced Rust developers.

Who should apply?

🔹 Intermediate to advanced developers who want to write Bitcoin software in Rust.

🔹 Programmers looking to contribute to open-source Bitcoin Rust projects.

🔹 Developers eager to build secure and efficient Bitcoin applications.
