Moving Open Source Up the Bitcoin Stack – Baltic Honeybadger 2023

It's clear that the Bitcoin and Lightning protocols must be open source to be widely used. But what about products built on top of layer 1 and layer 2?

Does it matter if Bitcoin apps and infrastructure are open? In this talk from Baltic Honeybadger 2023 in Riga, Nicolas Burtey digs into the topic of open source beyond the Bitcoin and Lightning protocol layer:
- Why aren't there more Bitcoin companies shipping open source software?
- The nuances and benefits of open source - How open source infrastructure can fuel global adoption
- What you can do to help win the race against CBDCs

Nicolas Burtey is founder and CEO of Galoy.
