We are hiring a Senior Backend Engineer @fold_app to help build out our Ledger & Payments Core. Understanding fundamental accounting principles and how traditional fiat payment rails work is critical to building the best bridge between BTC and USD. It unlocks user experiences that allow users to adopt the bitcoin standard at their own pace, with minimal friction. If building systems of record for money movement excites you, this is the role for you. Event driven architecture, best-in-class tooling, elite team. Details below.

Starting to build a little differently at @fold_app. If you know any design engineers who care deeply about both aesthetics and code (and want to work on bitcoin-only products) send them my way. Craft, communication, and velocity are what we are weighting towards. It's a unique moment: going from 1→100 and 0→1 at the same time.
Replying to @mattmcman_s
2/ Design engineer Not a designer. Not an engineer. Both. You care about aesthetics and implementation. Work closely with me, @shua_lippe, and the engineering team on the next generation of Fold's design system. Apply → wellfound.com/jobs/3293999-s…

BitPay just launched their Lightning integration, enabling all merchants to accept payments from customers over the Lightning Network. For context, BitPay processed 76,583 payments in March, 57% of which were on Bitcoin's base chain. ⚡️

@BitGo why is your verifyaddress endpoint non-deterministic for taproot addresses? api.bitgo.com/docs/#operatio…

If I pass the same address (bc1p) to it 10 times, ~ half the time it's valid, half the time it's invalid.

Any recommendations for crypto tax software that accepts a closing report (with cost basis information) for previous years?

All the major platforms insist that I can just upload my transactions from previous years, but without any knowledge of the liquidation method I utilized, this is going to give inaccurate results. @TaxBit @ZenLedgerIO

1/ There are a few key moments that define our future. One is happening now in the Senate w/ the infrastructure bill. At the 11th hour @MarkWarner has proposed an amendment that would decide which foundational technologies are OK and which are not in crypto. This is disastrous.
