BRH-012: BitDevs Radio Hour #12 - Transaction Introspection for $50, Exploits Hackathon, and Unhuman.store Agent Launch

About this episode

The episode covers transaction introspection techniques, security vulnerabilities found at a hackathon, and recent product launches in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Broadcasting live from ATL BitLab on Friday, March 6th, 2026, Stephen DeLorme and Alex Lewin cover Robin Linus's latest cracked-out discovery (BINOHASH: transaction introspection without soft forks using OPCHECKMU LTSIG quirks for $50 in cloud GPU grinding), post-quantum proposals for P2PKH outputs proving ownership via zero-knowledge STARKs (5.6MB proofs approaching feasibility), and the Hourglass V2 update limiting pay-to-pubkey spends to one Bitcoin per block to incentivize early quantum disclosure. Alex announces React Native support merged in Fediment SDK after six months of Rust-to-native-modules work, enabling iOS and Android Fediment wallets with a few lines of code. Protocol proposals include Matt Corallo's draft BIP for 24-bit version field nonce space (miners already using seven timestamp bits) and Craig Raw's output script descriptor annotations adding birthday blocks and gap limits via URL query param format. The security spotlight: Bitcoin++ Exploits hackathon in Brazil finds 10+ real bugs in 22 hours. MindSploit wins first place discovering three Stratum V2 vulnerabilities using Metasploit-like framework. B10C demonstrates Firefox allowing JavaScript to port-scan…
