We're talking with#[0] tonight on jitsi. We'd love it if you dropped in for a listen. Bring questions!
FROST is the new cryptographic signing protocol that will make taproot multisig wallets a reality. This is a huge upgrade! Not only does it unlock taproot's scripting superpowers for multisig wallets, but taproot multisig spends are indistinguishable from single sig spends on chain! Blend in with the crowd for even better security. 🥸
I, for one, can't wait to bring a little FROST to my cold storage setup. ☃️🏦❄️

Any currently enrolled #NCSU #bitcoin fans out there? Let's start a club!
I can help coordinate and host events, invite guest speakers, interview them. But I need some students who are hyped about bitcoin to lead the club.
Slide into my DMs. Let's start something big.
My goal is to introduce NCSU students to the field, provide technical education, increased collaboration opportunities for researchers, and ultimately a pathway to employment for bright young minds.
If you know someone I should talk to please contact me!

Thanks to everyone who made it to BitDevs last night. It was crowded! I had to double check that the bull market didn't start early. Lots of returning guests and several new faces. We love to see it!
#[0] crushed it. Trident wallet is looking amazing. Excellent work. Miniscript will be a step function for the security and flexibility of self-custody just like multisig back in the day.
Jesse killed it with a presentation on BTCPayServer and the new WabiSabi plugin.
Join us online next Thursday 3/16 at Rust for Bitcoiners. We're covering chapter 3 in The Rust Book.
The following Thursday 3/23 is Hack Day. Bring your laptop and see what other builders have been working on.
We'll be back with another Socratic Seminar the second Wed in April.
