Welcome to the No Bullshit Bitcoin community and open PR desk! TL;DR: - Here you can submit your project's press releases, important and interesting updates, research, and other news and developments you deem important or believe they deserve more acknowledgment. - Submissions that require discretion (like press releases under embargo or confidential news leaks) can still be sent to us via Nostr DMs. ---- We've been actively looking for ways to crowdsource our news discovery process and improve our feed. Communities seem like a suitable place - it's somewhat better than a dedicated email and allows for sufficient pseudonymity (e.g. anyone can generate a one-time use pubkey in seconds). In addition, communities can add more transparency to our reporting and news discovery process and open things up for questions and discussions on certain submissions. As we are 100% AUDIENCE-FUNDED, being open and transparent is at the core of this project. Our goal here is to create an open space for discussion on what are the most important news and developments in BITCOIN and related FREEDOM TECH. While it is still early days for Nostr communities, innovative Nostr features like upzap and downzap (available on Zappdit) will help us to discover and curate the highest quality signal. We can't promise that all submissions are going to make it to our main news feed at

Research: The Many Faces of Schnorr "Our main new result is to show how to securely combine the techniques used in FROST and SPRINT, allowing one to build a threshold Schnorr signing protocol that: 1) is secure and robust without synchrony assumptions (like SPRINT); 2) provides security even with an unlimited number of presignatures, and (assuming unused presignatures are available) signing requests can be processed concurrently with minimal latency (like FROST); 3) achieves high throughput (like SPRINT), and; 4) achieves optimal resilience."
