Today, I'm announcing the beta release of the Coinjoin plugin for @BtcpayServer. After many months of hard but exciting work, this opt-in plugin makes BTCPay Server one of the most extensive privacy-oriented Bitcoin tools around.
Let's do a quick illustrative dive into a new #bitcoin payment protocol I've been working on: Discrete Payments through Wabisabi coinjoins and #Nostr encrypted communication.
Happy to announce I've joined @ArkLabsHQ!
After falling down a rabbit hole last year, I'm convinced that Ark is the only realistic, shippable concept that can power the next generation of Bitcoin services.
You have no idea what's coming š„
For 2020, I'm not sure I'll be able to keep going with full-time @BtcpayServer work. Financially, it has been rough(incredibly tight constant budget eating away at me) and I do not get enough work for this to be feasible.
Nobody wants to work with a country that will put you in jail for decades when you've always tried to build tools the right way, for the right reasons (freedom and bettering humanity).
Open-sourcing Private Pond: The most advanced payjoin system.

With all the current hype around Payjoin for the month, I'm open-sourcing a project I developed five years ago:Ā [ github.com/Kukks/PrivatePā¦](Private Pond)
Note: this
On another note: I should start a wall of shame, to all the would-be clients that wasted hundreds of hours of my time on consultancy job proposals, agree to all terms and then ghost me right before payment and contract signing.
Confidential transactions are a game changer for privacy and for merchant fiat settlement with liquid tether. I'll be working on some tools this year for this(automated privacy oriented swap services between onchain btc and liquid assets)
