Bitcoin Optech Newsletter #429 Recap Podcast
Greg Sanders, Antoine Poinsot, Elias Rohrer, Oleksandr Kurbatov and Nishant Bansal join the Optech hosts for the #429 recap, which starts with Bitcoin Core #36665, #36667 and #36669 before moving to the updated security policy.

Bitcoin Optech Newsletter #429
A channel announcement naming the same node at both ends could crash Core Lightning 25.02 through 26.04 on every restart, at a cost to the attacker of only onchain fees; the fix landed in 26.04.1. Newsletter #429 pairs that disclosure with Oleksandr Kurbatov's protocol for multiparty silent payment inputs and Bitcoin Core's faster point releases for easily discoverable bugs.
