Fedi

Fedimint developers, Eric Sirion, and Cashu’s thesimplekid ran one federation across three codebases at Ecash Hackday Berlin on September 30. Fedi CEO Obi Nwosu says the demo answers the software-monoculture risk he flagged after Liquid and Coldcard.

Fedi plans to open-source its entire software stack on Jan. 3, fulfilling a commitment it made at launch in 2024.

Fedi, the Bitcoin innovator building on the Fedimint protocol, today releases a one-click federation builder in its app, pairing users with anonymous guardians to secure bitcoin reserves and uphold cypherpunk privacy ideals.

Four years after someone bought a cup of coffee with ecash, the privacy technology being built on top of Bitcoin continues to improve. From Fedimint and Cashu to new protocols like BitVM, developers, activists, and users are uniting to ensure that transactional privacy with Bitcoin is available to all.

Fedi and Stak are organizing a month-long hackathon that brings together the AI and Bitcoin communities.

The unique test event, utilizing fedimints, will serve as a proving ground for Fedi Alpha and offer a look at how the technology works.

The company, now having raised $21.21 million, aims to pre-launch the alpha version of its federated operating system later in May.

Fedi is teaming up with Epoch to reward 2.54 bitcoin in a hackathon that aims to boost its Fedimint-based community custody and privacy platform.

Fedi is working to change the face of bitcoin self-custody by onboarding millions of people onto bitcoin by getting them off exchanges.

The Fedi team is using the ideas behind Chaumian Ecash to develop alternative custody solutions in order to onboard many more people to bitcoin.
