The Artist and His Human Imprint: When Art Loses Its Essence

"The Camel of Burdens" – by Palestinian artist Suleiman Mansour (1973) This painting is an icon of Palestinian art, depicting a Palestinian man struggling under the weight of Jerusalem on his back. It has become a global symbol of the Palestinian people’s suffering and resilience, clearly reflecting the idea that art is not merely aesthetics, but a human and historical stance that preserves memory.

Grynvault Q2'25 Update: Forging On

We're raising $600K to bootstrap liquidity for a new primitive intended to aggregate liquidity in fragmented markets and bring treasury strategies onto Bitcoin L1 instead. You can hire us if you find our work applicable to problems you face. Also, if you are in private credit seeking downside-protected exposure to Bitcoin, or are otherwise looking for discount Bitcoin, please hit us up.

The State of Bitcoin Development

As Bitcoin adoption grows through treasury companies and ETFs, self-custody is increasingly critical to mitigate risks from crime and policy changes, while the network’s limited scripting—two core functions (hashed timelocks, multi-signatures) and three states (UTXO, OP_RETURN, SIGHASH)—forms the foundation for custody, escrow, swaps, Lightning channels, and sidechains. Data consensus exists only for Bitcoin itself, making off-chain interpretation necessary for SIGHASH, where larger non-Bitcoin assets like stablecoins or art often reside—seen by some as corruption and others as a trustless alternative to custodial systems. Programmatic use relies on HTLCs and DLCs (with oracles), while multisig evolves via MPC, and covenant upgrades could boost security without adding Turing-completeness. Innovation continues in meta-protocols and L2s, with notable projects like Alkanes, RadFi’s Trading Wallet, and Arch’s decentralized oracle compute network advancing Bitcoin’s role as modern sound money.
