9th wave of bitcoin grants: Kibo, El Tor, Nutstash, rust-bitcoin 🌊
Discussion
Many grant recipients said the same but it truly is both an honor and a privilege to be able to work full time on Bitcoin tech and be part of this movement.
There really aren't many jobs more important today and this grant provides a very needed lifeline which allows all of that, for that I am incredibly grateful
Kibō is already one year old and yet it still feels in its infancy, there many goals still to achieve and ideas to implement.
I really hope that I'll be able to continue working on it for as long as I possibly can
And while this project will forever be completely open source, there are still plans to be profitable with services à la mempool.space like paid hosting. After that I very much intend to return the favor and join the other side as a donater and allow others to join us build a better future
In the meantime I'll keep on building and can't wait to release the massive v0.6 update which is a complete redesign (code wise) of the project with huge improvements for self-hosters and many other changes
Thank you so much to everyone at OpenSats and all donors, y'all are phenomenal
(and for anyone wondering kibō is Japanese for hope)
#Bitcoin is hope 🕊️
