I recently joined Bitcoin News for a friendly conversation about Bitcoin Development Kit’s origins, mission, and where we’re headed. I shared how BDK grew from an early side project into a cross-platform foundation, powering wallets and Bitcoin applications across the ecosystem.

The chat also covered BDK’s open-source philosophy, support for layer two protocols, and how developers use BDK to ship safer, more flexible Bitcoin products, without reinventing core infrastructure. Check out the full conversation (opens new window) to hear the complete story behind BDK, its real-world impact, and what’s coming next.
