We put together a teaser and demo video for our submission of
@npub1vy6w...27hr to the @npub1funq...gs0p Legends of Lightning hackathon.
Can't believe the project is already a year old. We have a great team working on it and making good progress with the lesson content. Also, we're just hackathoning for fun and glory and not competing for prizes.
Congrats to all the other teams that participated and put their hearts and minds into their projects. You can check them out here:

Designer & developer. Helping improve bitcoin design with many others at https://bitcoin.design . I write a weekly update at https://gbks.substack.com . ✌️
The Bitcoin UI Kit now has its own plugin to easily change the theme and keep the design system tidy. Here's a walkthrough.
You can get it here on Figma Community:

This UI kit provides a design foundation for prototypes, concept explorations and open-source projects to kickstart the design process.
Just submitted a talk proposal for FOSDEM about open-source design and sustainability in @Bitcoin Design. Proposals are due tomorrow if you'd also like to present something.

This is my default easing curve for page transitions. 400ms with a (0.5,0,0.2,1) bezier curve . What do you use?

Easings - Generate, test and share custom easing curves.
Test common easing curves on a range of interfaces. Or generate and share your own cubic-bezier curves.
The song I listened to most often this year, according to Apple Music.
My wife started a podcast where she chats with her 2 sisters about moving to the US from Japan as kids, now living on different continents, and lots of other things. Big part of the motivation for doing this is to capture stories to leave behind for the kids eventually. We're naturally also testing out Value4Value, so you can find the show on @Fountain if you'd like to peek in.

Some changes I am looking into for the Bitcoin UI Kit (
First, expand the color palette from 4 to 12, with one primary color, to make the use of color more flexible.
Second, replace light/dark mode with style sets that can affect color, type, and other properties. This should make it 100x easier to style the kit to your preferences. See it in action in this video.
Third, publish a custom Bitcoin UI Kit plugin with various helper tools. Watch the video to see a work-in-progress version in action and how it enables the theming system.
After that, we'll need to update the website to reflect the changes, and also create some how-to videos and explainers. I'd love to have more contributors on these efforts and make this the best UI Kit in past, present, future across the multiverse.

About 250 those are recorded and on YouTube & BitcoinTV. Creating covers for the videos is always a fun little exercise, making something that looks interesting somehow without much meaning to it. Here are some from mostly recent design guide jam session.

How can the Bitcoin UI Kit be improved? I am currently gathering ideas for a 2024 roadmap.

Quick test animating a static image from @npub1vy6w...27hr via RunwayML. Just incredible what machine learning can do. It adds so much life.
My (somewhat) weekly update on my open-source design work in the bitcoin ecosystem is live. Anyone know how long until AI can do all this stuff, so I can put on my cowboy hat and ride into the sunset?

Another chapter is live for Saving Satoshi. In chapter 4, you learn how to write the code for deriving an address from a private key. The team is already busy with chapters 5 (message verification) and 6 (constructing transactions).
