OpenSats is pleased to announce our fourteenth wave of grants from the General Fund, providing support to four first-time recipients and six grant renewals.

This round focuses on practical infrastructure by expanding access to test networks, making full nodes easier to run, improving transparency in Lightning payments, and reducing operational friction for ecash systems.

The four first-time grant recipients are:

Each of these projects contributes to keeping Bitcoin decentralized, transparent, and user-driven, while ensuring it remains robust and accessible.

None of this would be possible without the generosity of our donors. If you'd like to help move Bitcoin forward by supporting projects like those in this wave, consider donating to our General Fund.
