Bitcoin & Bitcoin Core
Independent verification and native BTC settlement.
Education now; node and payment operations planned.
Read the project documentation ↗Open technology · Our design principles
Verify the work. Keep the freedom to leave.
Our Nakamoto standard is a project design commitment: open rules, proof-of-work education, individual control and systems that people can inspect and carry forward.
This is our interpretation of principles inspired by Bitcoin, not a certification or endorsement by Satoshi Nakamoto. Proof of work secures a transaction history; it does not prove a kitchen served a meal or that an investment is safe.
Lightning
Small Bitcoin payments with explicit custody, liquidity and routing tradeoffs.
Artist checkout prototype planned.

Portable source and a site that can be independently hosted.
Source and static export work; new IPFS release and satnam.x deferred.
Read the project documentation ↗Independence is something we test
Keep source, content and evidence exportable. Practice restoring a site with a second operator. Prefer open protocols and minimize private data. Document who controls keys, domains, hosting and publication.
Today we still depend on GitHub, Vercel, hosting services and human-operated accounts. A decentralized ambition is not a claim of complete independence. We will publish the remaining dependencies and test replacements before claiming otherwise.
Bitcoin first, clear about other networks
Bitcoin anchors our monetary and verification education. Litecoin is a distinct proof-of-work network. Lightning is a payment network built around Bitcoin, not a new coin. Existing Arc, USDC and Morpho research remains a separate experimental workstream and is not required to learn, serve or create here.
Starting point: Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. See the public architecture for current limitations.
