BRH-009: BitDevs Radio Hour #9: Bitcoin Core Maintainer Resigns, First Agent-to-Agent Payment

Broadcasting live from ATL BitLab on February 6th, Stephen DeLorme and Alex Lewin cover Hornet Node's parallelized UTXO database claiming 8x faster validation than Bitcoin Core, BitThoven's formally verified language for Bitcoin smart contracts that requires no fork, and InstaGibs using Claude Code to rebase LN-symmetry branches—keeping covenant proof-of-concepts alive with zero maintenance cost. LDK fixes a Bolt 12 Bech32 padding bug caught by differential fuzzing, preventing non-canonical offer encodings. Then the conversation shifts to Gloria Zhao stepping down as Bitcoin Core maintainer after sustained harassment from the filters community. The hosts spend 30 minutes unpacking the tragedy: the economic irony of attacking rare engineering talent that could earn $500k more elsewhere, criticisms based on fiction that Gloria "doesn't understand Bitcoin is money," comparisons to cultural revolution mob dynamics. "This IS an attack on Bitcoin—not dark forces, but direct attacks on protocol developers creating a norm of burning through contributors." The episode closes with cautious optimism: Alex’s agent Claw built clawthing.store in four hours and A/B tested emotional marketing copy with five sub-agents. Stephen’s agent BOLTy received ATL BitLab’s first agent-to-agent Lightning payment from Son of Abbott in the BitLab Telegram. Anthropic's Opus 4.6 autonomously built Stigmata, a C compiler that compiles Linux, using $20k in API credits and agent teams coordinating through Git. The decentralized pattern repeats: like the web and Bitcoin, the killer infrastructure emerged from grassroots experimentation rather than corporate planning.
