Bitcoin has no such reliable record like LWN (and a huge number of unreliable ones!), so it's near-impossible to keep up with the flow of ideas from prototypes, academic research and development into the Bitcoin ecosystem.

From outside it may seem like nothing is happening, but it's simply never been laid out in one place.  This talk delivers hard-won insight based on years of working with core developers and coders which you won't get anywhere else, and is delivered by someone passionate about the technology and uninterested in the drama.

This talk was given at Linux.conf.au 2018 (LCA2018) which was held on 22-26 January 2018 in Sydney Australia.

linux.conf.au is a conference about the Linux operating system, and all aspects of the thriving ecosystem of Free and Open Source Software that has grown up around it. Run since 1999, in a different Australian or New Zealand city each year, by a team of local volunteers, LCA invites more than 500 people to learn from the people who shape the future of Open Source.
