description
Summer of Bitcoin places students into open-source Bitcoin projects through a competitive selection. About 50 to 60 students are selected globally each year, from roughly 5,000 applicants. I was selected twice, both times to work on SeedSigner, an air-gapped Bitcoin signing device.
highlights
- Now one of the top contributors to SeedSigner, involved in 80+ PRs and issues.
- Stayed on between and after both terms: features, bugfixes, release chores, PR review and translations.
- 2026 term: translation automation and the review workflow around it.
- 2025 term: extended BIP-85 support, so child seeds load directly on-device.
