An open-source Bitcoin mining stack is inevitable. We welcome contributors and donors to support redefining the status-quo to keep Bitcoin decentralized and permission-less.

Bitcoin mining must be open-source or Bitcoin remains PERMISSIONED. Check out my deep dive on our work at the @256FOUNDATION to understand why we're commoditizing the building blocks of the mining stack and how we're best positioned to pull it off.

Bitcoin started as an open-source project. But miners split from nodes, advanced to ASICs and closed the door. Today it is inherently permissioned. A commoditized mining stack is necessary to return Bitcoin's decentralization and permissionlessness.

256 Red Team update: Our original 30 day disclosure window closes today. Every impacted party asked for an extension and is working with us in good faith. Findings will publish when the windows close. We will keep the public posted.

~90% of ASICs run one vendor's closed-source firmware. Almost nobody has audited it. We at @256FOUNDATION do. Introducing the 256 Red Team 🧵 — the 256 Foundation's firmware security program. On hardware we own, in an isolated lab, under coordinated disclosure.

We're thankful for @HRF's continued support of the 256 Foundation and our Core Projects. This grant will help us polish latest revisions and validate hardware while continuing Mujina Firmware development and ecosystem nurturing.
