Version 0.3.6 is out now. It adds Bark support, which I started implementing at the Bitcoin++ Payments Edition hackathon in Berlin. Improving UI, and handling important edge cases took some additional time.<br/><br/>Bitboard Wallet is now one of the few wallets that both support Arkade and Bark, the first and second Ark implementations. Visual unilateral exits are implemented for both.<br/><br/>Check it out on <a href="https://bitboard-wallet.com">https://bitboard-wallet.com</a><br/><br/>#Ark #Arkade #Bark #Bitboard #Bitcoin #dev 2026-10-23T17:49:29Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqstmmw24a964l62vnhaznrygas6g2j844tn9exg0detsmvyave02hszyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjc5ew55 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswuwmj3x6k9rg9utghwtdhwwmd5garty5s5js5nf5zquwyztwgwtc0lrkjz'>nevent1q…rkjz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>&#34;Verify, don&#39;t trust&#34; is the core motto here. Ark is a nice technology, but the unilateral/emergency exits need to work. If those exits are not implemented, or just not properly tested, Ark might just as well be called a custodial system. The risk isn&#39;t that the Ark operator claims the funds, but that the service goes down for whatever reason and doesn&#39;t come back online. 2026-10-23T12:21:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvwujuvjl4w8ypnyzfegpkvmvtae095cflqzffqc95p7ujqyu3leczyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjyusjkz In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswpwqm9r20udsq7ycj95ha980mmx8p7eq3dsmqjwaqc60q2qrczncx3cupm'>nevent1q…cupm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yeah, this is a bit of a trade-off between Bark and Arkade. For the Arkade unilateral exits the state machine that handles the exit is fully controlled by the wallet, but I could test it in Mutinynet, which only takes 3 minutes per block.<br/><br/>What&#39;s better about Bark is that the Bark SDK provides such a state machine out of the box. So, in theory I only have to test the integration of that into the wallet. The whole process is still a bit rough around the edge cases, so the 10 minute wait for each step is annoying. That testing is not fully replaceable with a regtest setup.<br/><br/>I&#39;m not at the state yet at which I would be comfortable delegating this kind of testing to an agent setup. But that would be rather helpful going forward. 2026-10-06T11:27:51Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsy04ymty5rwumvchvssvc5uur34etjw795wggfx60gcg9t08zr53qzyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjramcyq During the Bitcoin++ hackathon in Berlin I added Bark support for Bitboard Wallet. Adding a payment rail in a day is possible, but creating a new release with that new feature takes much longer. I need to make sure it plays along nicely with any existing functionality like:<br/><br/>* Paying with Bitcoin on-chain, Lightning, or Arkade<br/>* Switching wallets or networks<br/>* Locking and unlocking the wallet<br/><br/>Also, there&#39;s the issue about making all Bark features work reliably. For example, testing emergency exits (as visible in the screenshot) on Signet takes some time (10 Minutes for each single step).<br/><br/>#bitcoin #layer2 #Bark #Bitboard #exits #hackathon<br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/6b3d9fcecb08e8ec761f545559d2cd70407023906f0082602e7ba39202f05cc5.png"> 2026-10-05T08:55:04Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsg0cfx9d3c3h9vvz5eftp8qn0cp65p6fhll467aukm4f8nk4m4vfqzyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjq68uta Let&#39;s create a decicated Unilateral Exit service for Bark and Arkade. <br/><br/> 2026-10-03T13:38:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsx8kyjk5ach6qdgjfd2a0cjt54k3xja9aeh4epzey8ahdkjcdpj5qzyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjvttygv In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvw5egqkld9kszt53ket8qyfhjquh2caur8u2t5nkzx4r8gldl4fg00zdlv'>nevent1q…zdlv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Ah, dann bin ich mal echt gespannt.

Aber ich muss hier echt knallhart sagen: Was für Argumente bitte? Klar kann man die Meinung haben, dass eine Bitcoin Node zu betreiben zu den Essentials gehört. Das ist aber noch lange kein Argument.<br/><br/>Klar, kann man eine Node als Neugierde betreiben, oder um als Checker darzustehen, oder um bessere Privacy zu haben. Das wären wenigstens echte Argumente - vielleicht nicht unbedingt die allerbesten, aber es sind wahrscheinlich auch nicht die schlechtesten.<br/><br/>Es fiel die Behauptung, dass man nicht am Bitcoin Netzwerk partizipiert, wenn man keine Node betreibt. Wie bitte? Das ist in etwa so falsch wie zu behaupten, dass man nicht am Internet partizipiert, wenn man keinen eigenen dedizierten Server betreibt. Beim Internet geht es um den Austausch von Daten. Bei Bitcoin geht es um Transaktionen. Nur weil man nicht weiß, wie die zugrundeliegende Infrastruktur funktioniert, oder nicht den Aufwand betreiben will, sich an dieser Infrastruktur zu beteiligen, heißt das noch lange nicht, dass man nicht am Netzwerk teilnimmt.<br/><br/>Anderer Vergleich: Man könnte sagen, dass man nur dann Demokrat ist, wenn man einer Partei angehört, oder sich selber zur Wahl aufstellt - nur zu wählen reicht natürlich nicht, weil das kann ja jeder.<br/><br/>Ja, man kann diese Ansprüche stellen, aber sind diese wirklich angemessen? Ich würde dem stark widersprechen.<br/><br/>Also: Ich warte auf ernsthafte Argumente von eurer Seite.<br/> 2026-09-30T19:07:25Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsfpa2k2yn4yxt7cuuhtln49nl52984nflcdwe7dyq5rd8y07xzkxqzyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjyz7ur3 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdadjkrhjjux75f8qpsm7jxaag8sc9sc87twh0lk0cwyw3ga3x54sjqwer2'>nevent1q…wer2</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Eine Node laufen zu lassen, nützt dem Netzwerk weniger als Mining. Von jedem Bitcoiner zu verlangen, Mining zubetreiben wäre ein vernünftigerer Standard, aber ökonomisch fragwürdig. Von daher ist die Aussage, dass Bitcoiner ohne Node LARPer sind völliger Schwachsinn! 2026-09-30T13:30:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9ga4sl9ke4x8ce8h2yfjt7zlts4uayd826pud7ymnwklts9gfhpgzyp8zxz4npkesynakmzehnhs4cw4kvay9qkh6s0p3s7s4kfwyt3eyjjgzef7 Bitboard Wallet is a learning web app for letting people explore Bitcoin layers 1 and 2 safely.<br/><br/>Version 0.3.5 is out now.
