Does not receive the credit it deserves for some reason. Extremely impressive and important
Charity has never had so many haters π€·
Fund anything you want but please STOP FUNDING shitcoin core devs for the sake of the monetary property of the bitcoin.
$ 30 Million? This is fuck impressive
Awesome! I think the 40 different countries part impresses me the most. Awesome knowing these projects are distributed under different jurisdictions for the benefit of everyone.
Thatβs phenomenal. A shining example of what true Bitcoin alignment looks like. Empowering open source contributors globally, fee-free and on a pure Bitcoin standard. OpenSats is quietly rewriting the playbook for sustainable open source support. β¨π₯

Very cool to see. Out of interest, how does the organisation pay itself?
Or is there a way to donate to opensats?
we have a separate operations fund people can support, as a result our ops are incredibly lean compared to other non profits

I mean I've lost some weight recently, but incredibly lean might be taking it too far.
Thanks Iβll take a look
Gotta keep trim! πͺπ»
That's awesome.


This is really fucking amazing and under appreciated.

Miss.
You know I run Bitcoin Knots (bitcoinknots.org) which is the best Bitcoin node implementation and an independent one. OpenSats hasn't contributed anything to its development.
Instead, OpenSats paid for development of malware Bitcoin Core v30 for Citrea and its previous versions.
Nostr apps are hardly usable and orphaned in most cases, unfortunately. I tried using Iris.to, Snort, Amethyst and a few more. I keep struggling to use Yana.
It's not much but hopefully it adds up π«‘ 

Congratulations it's really a success story, let's continue π«
Thatβs amazing. Great work!
Incredible work!

Would love to have you all review @V E C T O R, which utilizes Nostr, and get your honest thoughts and take. Any questions, happy to connect you with the lead developer @JSKitty. Thanks for your contributions towards FOSSπ

Good job, thanks for contributing to bitcoin
Iβm curious what your success rate is on these grants?
How many of them actually turned into a viable sustainable thing?
Thank you for your work π§‘
I wonder why Bitcoin Calendar was rejected though. I guess I'm bad at filling up the forms.
Every other requirement checks out - it is a FOSS educational non-profit indie project aimed at preserving Bitcoin history and helping people learn about the importance of open protocols, sound money and freedom tech.
I understand that you guys have a lot on your plate and projects that solve technical problems probably get more credit, but I believe preserving history is important to ensure we do not make same mistakes in the future.
I'd appreciate it if you could give me an advice here, Matt. Funding would help me dedicate more time and effort towards the project.
Imagine fading that
