Disclose it is ours. • Zeus v13.1.0 - 2026-06-17 Feature release: Cashu multi-mint sends, queue-less Nostr Wallet Connect payments on iOS, CLINK noffer support, and Cashu-token detection in URLs. Strong ecash plus Nostr-native payments stack for a self-custodial Lightning wallet. • Zeus v13.1.1 - 2026-06-26 Patch: fixes TLS cert verification for LND/CLN REST over Tor and a currency-converter input bug. • Phoenix 2.8.1 - 2026-06-18 Adds an iOS debug screen for signing swap-in transactions and fixes an Android amount-display bug, on updated lightning-kmp. • Blockstream Green iOS 5.5.0 - 2026-06-15 Adds support for paying LNURL, BOLT12, and BIP-353 payment instructions, improves Lightning invoice handling, and shows funding fees in the receive flow. • Blockstream Green Desktop 3.4.1 - 2026-06-17 Adds BOLT12 offer descriptions and updates GDK to 0.77.6. Secondary to the iOS release, but it reinforces the same BOLT12/BIP-353 direction. • Blink Mobile 3.0.1 - 2026-06-26 Pre-release build that continues Blink’s self-custodial wallet implementation, including wallet creation, seed backup/recovery, Blink Lightning address, LNURL pay, and Stable Balance with BTC-USD conversion. Mention only as a prerelease / watch item. Lightning / node ops • Core Lightning 26.06.2 - 2026-06-29 Point release recommended for minimal OS setups and Docker images lacking root TLS certificates. Late-breaking / record-day item if recording after June 29; not a lead, but useful for node operators. Self-hosting / payments infra • BTCPay Server v2.4.0 - 2026-06-25 Major release: multisig wallet setup, loginless passkey auth, and granular per-wallet permissions. Breaking: removes the LNBank and Lightning Charge backends. Bitcoin / wallet infrastructure • Liquid GDK 0.77.6 - 2026-06-16 Adds Python 3.14 wheels and fixes singlesig GDK use over Tor that broke after a ureq dependency update. Developer/infrastructure note rather than listener-facing wallet news. Hardware / multisig / inheritance • Nunchuk 2.6.0 - 2026-06-17 (Blog Post: https://nunchuk.io/blog/phased-rollout ) Phased rollout of the off-chain inheritance protocol, plus fixes and performance work. Self-custodied estate planning for multisig users. P2P / no-KYC trading • Mostro v0.17.5 - 2026-06-16 Anti-abuse bonds harden the Nostr-based P2P marketplace while staying non-custodial. Adds multi-source price aggregation and maker-timeout penalties. • BULL Wallet v6.11.1 - 2026-06-22 CSV export, payment notes, auto swap-claim retries, better Electrum reliability, experimental Linux desktop support. • Peach Bitcoin 0.69.0 - 2026-06-25 Faster funding-flow sync, but ships a new EU-compliance sign-up step. Worth naming the privacy/compliance tradeoff for a no-KYC-leaning audience. On-chain privacy / coinjoin • Ashigaru Desktop 1.0 - 2026-06-24 Ashigaru Desktop 1.0.0 (June 19, 2026) is the inaugural stable release of the Whirlpool coinjoin desktop wallet, shipping Tx0/zeroleak mixing with Premix/Postmix/Badbank account management, built-in Tor, Mix To for routing postmix funds offline, a receive-only attack-surface reduction model, BIP-329 label import/export, and an offline BIP47 message verifier. It also adds a polished dark-theme UI with live coinjoin progress tracking, full cross-platform packaging (Windows/macOS/Linux plus headless server builds), reproducible builds, and BIP47-signed three-step release verification. • JoinMarket NG 0.33.0 - 2026-06-24 Correction/update from earlier 0.32.0 note. 0.33.0 adds forced-address-reuse defences, a config center, TUI send validation, wallet history API work, and fidelity-bond / tumbler fixes. • Wasabi Wallet 2.8.0 - 2026-06-28 This release adds P2P sync for compact filters, pay-in-coinjoin, sub-1 sat/vByte fees, payment batching, a Scheme scripting language, Signet support, and Tor forward compatibility. It also broadens platform reach with arm64 Linux, Tails, and Whonix support. • Payjoin Dev Kit payjoin-mailroom 0.1.2 - 2026-06-26 Hardens the combined Payjoin Directory and OHTTP Relay with bounded file-descriptor usage, recovery from transient accept errors, database/per-request metrics, and unified mailbox TTL. General wallet / spend • Stack Wallet 2.6.0 - 2026-06-27 Adds CakePay gift-card support.  EDUCATION • The Fed Is Working on a CBDC The Rage reports that despite public denials, the Fed is internally researching CBDC design. A concrete surveillance-money piece that pairs directly with the 702 lapse for a “financial panopticon” segment. Also pair with the new ROAD to Housing Act CBDC-ban item: the ban runs only through 2030, which is the punchline. • BIP 110 Fork Simulator / explainer Interactive explainer of the BIP 110 “Reduced Data Temporary Softfork”: activation mechanics, what gets restricted, and how the data-filtering debate could split consensus. • How-To Guide: Running an Ecash Mint Hands-on Cashu / LNbits + Nutshell mint walkthrough. Ecash is the privacy tech of the moment; a good “run your own mint” counterweight to “just use a wallet.” • Bitcoin Privacy in 2026: A Practical Guide Dated 2026-06-04, outside even the grace cutoff, so use as evergreen rather than news. Good “where do listeners actually start” resource. • Bitcoin Optech #411 Carries the LND zero-timestamp DoS disclosure plus the usual protocol-discussion roundup. Patch reminder for node runners. • Bitcoin Optech #410 Summarises an active dev debate to remove opt-in RBF signaling because it now mainly fingerprints the wallet that created the transaction, plus Sparrow Silent Payments, JoinMarket, and Ark items. KEEP AN EYE ON • EU “Chat Control” final trilogue - Patrick Breyer / fightchatcontrol.eu The fourth and likely final trilogue on the permanent CSAM-scanning regulation is set for Monday 2026-06-29. Member states have reportedly dropped the forced encrypted-message-scanning mandate, but the Council text would still codify “voluntary” scanning and extend the interim derogation, with formal adoption expected in July. Outcome not yet known as of record date. • MiCA enforcement after July 1 - ESMA / Bull Bitcoin Bull Bitcoin is the self-custody-friendly example to watch, while ESMA’s wind-down warning is the enforcement backdrop. After July 1, check which EU-accessible services remain available, which providers stop onboarding, and whether “compliant but non-custodial” survives contact with implementation.

    NO HEALTH = NO FREEDOM | FREEDOM TECH FRIDAY 42

    A weekly live show covering all things Freedom Tech with Max, Q and Seth. In this week’s Freedom Tech Friday, Max welcomed back Zach Herbert, CEO of Foundation, for a deep dive into practical health sovereignty, starting at home. We moved beyond Bitcoin, seed phrases, and secure elements to the everyday systems thinking Zach has applied to his own biology. We tackled the big three of home optimisation; water, air, and light. Max and Zach explored how to choose and install reverse osmosis with remineralisation (and why it matters), whole‑home and countertop options for renters, UV sterilisation, shower filters, and the very real issues of PFAS, fluoride, and microplastics. On air, we explored CO₂ monitoring, ERV/HRV ventilation, humidification/dehumidification strategies, realistic budgets for owners and renters, and why indoor CO₂ quietly wrecks performance and sleep. When it came to light, they contrasted high‑CRI, no‑flicker LEDs with incandescents, circadian effects, dim‑to‑warm setups, and why harsh, blue‑heavy flicker can spike stress and fatigue, especially for kids. Max and Zach then dug into targeted personal health: why genetic insights should precede bloods, balancing privacy with utility, and how DNA variants (MTHFR, vitamin D conversion, dopamine response, drug metabolism) can explain lab results and guide smarter supplementation (methylated B vitamins, vitamin D) and protocols (sauna, blood donation trade‑offs). They also hit practicals on electrolyte quality and salt (ditch stevia/citric acid, choose clean salts), everyday toxin minimisation (tallow skincare, hydroxyapatite toothpaste, cleaner hair care), and a level‑headed take on parasites and ivermectin. The theme throughout: use tech to restore a more natural environment and reclaim health autonomy without going “100‑step protocol” make quick wins for renters and owners alike that compound over years for you and your family.
