I built a very small language model on plebslop. How small? Small enough to fit in a single *standard* bitcoin transaction. There is now a plebslop generator on every Bitcoin node. The UI includes client-side inference code. It loads the weights and does it all in-browser

Thank you to everyone who came to @tabconf 7 and made it wonderful this year! 4 days of: cordial debates, technical workshops, talks and panels, interactivities, meshtastic devices, hardware hacking, the CTB puzzle.

BIP54: “Consensus Cleanup” was just advanced to Complete: github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob… Let’s do this!

Today we announce: AADP WE Open Challenges. Recently we proposed a new witness encryption scheme based on Arithmetic Affine Determinant Programs which we intend to use in Bitcoin PIPEs v2, unlocking a wide range of applications and eliminating the need for trusted parties. Now we invite anyone to break small instances of our new scheme or to discover structural properties that were unknown before. Details here: allocinit.notion.site/challe… Special thanks to @zeroknowledgefm @zkproof @IACReurocrypt for organizing the conference week in Rome that we're announcing these at in person.
