- We're live at @pointzeroforum 2026. @adam3us joins the conversation on digital assets and financial infrastructure while @n1ckler and Stefan Keller are speaking on post-quantum security for Bitcoin and @Liquid_BTC. Our enterprise team is on the ground throughout the days,
- Bitcoin’s 200-week moving average just hit $62K, making current levels an attractive entry point for capital. In a recent interview, Blockstream CEO @adam3us broke down why the current market dip is a value trade driven by institutional focus, falling exchange supply, and rising
00:00 - Major financial institutions are developing training materials, procedures, and processes to make Bitcoin products available to clients. @adam3us explains the set up.

Unless @Apple's decision to terminate @craigraw's Apple Developer account is reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow will fail, and development on macOS will end. If you value Sparrow, a repost would help. @AppleSupportMy attempt to protect users from scam apps on the @AppStore has gotten my Apple Developer account flagged for termination - ironically, for "dishonest activity". Unless it's reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow Wallet will fail, and development on macOS will end. - Build lending contracts you can formally verify with Simplicity, alongside the banking teams at Swisscom and Luzerner Kantonalbank. We cover where core banking is heading and how Liquid fits, then write them together on @Liquid_BTC. Zürich, July 2 🇨🇭
- What's been solved, what hasn't, and how we’re approaching post-quantum Bitcoin signature. @n1ckler, Director of @blksresearch, and Stefan Keller, Head of Delivery, are heading to @pointzeroforum in Zurich on June 25 2:00 pm to talk quantum resilience for Bitcoin and

Join Simplicity Office Hours this week with @Blockstream engineers. Recent sessions covered Mutinynet integration, DEX design, P2P lending, Confidential Transactions, and smart contract diagramming. Bring your questions every Tuesday 08:00 PT 🔗 docs.simplicity-lang.org/office-hours/
- The world is already migrating to post-quantum schemes. SSH clients warn when a server can't negotiate one. Browsers are defaulting to post-quantum TLS where available. @n1ckler of @blksresearch on why a quantum threat to banking is no reason to leave Bitcoin unsecured.
00:00 - On June 25, @adam3us steps on stage at @pointzeroforum in Zurich for one of the forum's headline panels: Digital Assets at the Crossroads: A CEO Dialogue. Moderated by Emma Joyce (GBBC), on stage with @BBilowitzki, Christian Schmid, Simone Maini, and Hon. Sunil Sabharwal taking
- A post-quantum upgrade to Bitcoin that collapses network throughput is not a real upgrade. SHRINCS sits well above the existing standard candidates on the throughput scale, without relying on newer and less proven cryptographic assumptions.
00:00Why throughput is one of the hardest problems in post-quantum Bitcoin, and how @blksresearch is approaching it: - "There's nothing worse than trying to protect against quantum computing and then making Bitcoin insecure against regular computing." @adam3us on why hash-based signatures are the conservative post-quantum choice for Bitcoin. Based on a 1979 paper. Decades of analysis. SHRINCS is
00:00 - If you're building financial infrastructure, that's the reliability benchmark. Start with a Blockstream Explorer API key. 🔗 dashboard.blockstream.info
