After talking with @Princey21M in Prague, I realized Bitcoin Core v30’s OP_RETURN policy change isn’t obvious to many: it didn’t create large OP_RETURN usage, it reacted to usage that already existed by removing a gate that wasn’t actually working.

We have become aware of a privacy bug in the -privatebroadcast feature, newly introduced in Bitcoin Core 31.0, that may cause the originator’s IP address to be revealed to the receiving peer under certain network conditions. A fix is forthcoming and will be released with 31.1.

Benalleng works on Payjoin Ben’s contributions to the Payjoin project have spanned test coverage expansion and novel test additions, workspace-wide refactors reducing external dependencies, dependency cleanups and alignment. Ben has also helped to overhaul the build infrastructure and hardened the primary Payjoin state machine and API refactors Interesting quote on Payjoin and Bitcoin privacy: "Bitcoin is about game theory and asymmetry. Achieving supermajority adoption of a privacy technology like Payjoin is likely to be extremely challenging and is perhaps not a realistic objective in the short to medium term. However, minority adoption of Payjoin can have a material positive impact on the systemwide privacy properties of the network. A significant impact on privacy can therefore realistically be achieved in the short to medium term. This is why Maelstrom considers Payjoin such an important technology" [3/4]

I support human rights - therefore I support Signal in this. This government has gone completely off the rails on these issues.
Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all. signal.org/blog/pdfs/2026-06…
