Everything You Don't Understand About Bitcoin Development - MURCH (THE Bitcoin Podcast)
"If someone wants to change Bitcoin in a way that is detrimental to even a minority of the Bitcoin users, they're probably going to be unsuccessful because there's going to be vehement pushback."On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with MURCH. Murch is a computer scientist, engineer at Chaincode labs, co-host of Bitdevs and the Chaincode Podcast, and moderator of the bitcoin stack exchange, answering literally thousands of questions about Bitcoin over the years. Murch and I discuss the Bitcoin development process, changing vs maintaining Bitcoin, ossification, privacy trade-offs, address reuse, and potential improvements like silent payments, quantum resistance, bitcoin tail emissions, ZK Roll-Ups, covenants, and Layer 2 scalability solutions like Lightning, ecash, fedimint, etc, plus their trade-offs. Murch also reviews the upcoming Bitcoin Core 28 release and what it means for you.MURCH'S LINKS:X: https://x.com/murchandamusNostr: npub1j5mp526z5fkz9wkrk6mt5nzu43xndyrwkr8mnqngdqwytgcpc5vqcnsd5chttps://bitdevs.orghttps://podcast.chaincode.com *****THE Bitcoin Podcast Partners -- use promo code WALKER for...> bitbox.swiss/walker -- 5% off the Bitcoin-only Bitbox02 hardware wallet.> EFANI: Protect yourself from SIM swap attacks – go to https://www.efani.com/walker and it’ll automatically apply the promo code WALKER getting you $99 OFF.> Cloaked Wireless: 25% OFF eSIM or physical SIM cards and protect yourself from SIM swap attacks.*****If you enjoy THE Bitcoin Podcast you can help support the show by doing the following:Subscribe to THE Bitcoin Podcast (and leave a review) on Fountain | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | Spotify | HIGHLIGHTER | EVERYWHERE ELSEFollow me (Walker) on Twitter Personal (@WalkerAmerica) | Twitter Podcast (@TitcoinPodcast) | Nostr Personal (walker) | Nostr Podcast (Titcoin)
