The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

AnyHedge is UTXO DeFi Derivatives Contract Template for Bitcoin Cash and I Scraped On-chain Data for Total Settled Volume
It is non-custodian betting on price of supported assets paired against BCH, both parties put their money into the contract's pot and later the contract parses an oracle message and calculates how much they can take out. Made possible with Introspection opcodes and int64 upgrades to Bitcoin-tech Script VM, which activated in May '22 on Bitcoin Cash blockchain.
- What is the technological case for BCH?
- Is it there a continuation to the book “Mastering Bitcoin” but that explains the changes in BCH?
-
BCH May 15, upgrade, what benefits does it bring?
I dug around a bit and it seems to be this one: CHIP-2021-02-Bigger-Script-Integers.
-
What are your biggest criticisms towards the Lightning Network?
native introspection
- BCH Unlimited 1.10.0 now out. Let’s get ready for the May upgrade!
- I was hesitant to trust my BCH on the smartBCH chain but after a few days I'm sold! It is ALL the benefits of ETH's smart contracts and ALL the benefits of Bitcoin in one! Just one question...

Introducing Unforgeable Groups for Bitcoin Cash - Using Groups as Owners
The latest "Group" proposal (v4.2) is more than just "tokenization". It got simpler and more powerful at the same time. It now enables generic BCH output groups that can be used to create persistent Script covenant contracts that can prove their genuineness. This is something that current contracts cannot do, even with the new Introspection opcodes. Group would make it possible because the groupID is a commitment to the whole genesis transaction, but this is not a post about that.

Coming soon to Pokket.cash: SmartBCH support!
Will you soon shut up about BCH being shit against "superior chains" when I point you to the CHIPs such as Native Introspection Opcodes, Bigger Script Integers which allows better smart contract functionality coming in 2022, and PMv3 and Group Tokens which allow better token and transaction formats that are coming in 2023?
-
Introspection opcodes are so cool, here's a teaser
You can't, because it requires a sibling output (same prevout txid as the contract, but index 1 instead of 0) to be spent alongside it and it verifies it using introspection opcodes that will be available in May. Only the owner of the sibling can spend the contract.

Only 2 Node Projects are Ready for the Upgrade Coming in Just Over 2 Weeks? Are we heading for a big fork?
AFAIK Verde has been releasing this for months now. (git).
-
My RaspberryPi 4 processed the two 8MB blocks from yesterday in 16 seconds
Fair enugh, there is no formal proposal for consensus rules for UTXO commitments. That would be the next step if continuing from this proposal (as mentioned several times in the doc): https://github.com/softwareverde/bitcoin-verde/blob/development/specification/utxo-fastsync-chip-20210625.md

Node operators: please update your nodes prior to the May 15 upgrade
Verde: https://bitcoinverde.org / https://github.com/SoftwareVerde/bitcoin-verde/releases/tag/v2.2.0 (v2.2.0)
-
What are your biggest criticisms towards the Lightning Network?
utxo commitments for real scaling
-
Bitcoin Verde sync stalled, possibly marking valid block as invalid?
For now, the most obvious answer is to make the node reconsider the block for processing. Unfortunately, that script wasn't added to the latest release, but I've added it to our development branch. You can download it here: https://github.com/softwareverde/bitcoin-verde/blob/development/scripts/rpc/reconsider-block.sh . Despite the script not existing in the latest release, the node does support the RPC call, we only failed to include the convenience script.

Is there a BCH Node that Provides Querying of OP_RETURN contents?
Bitcoin Verde 2.1.0 has a feature
- Partial indexing on pruned node?
- Coingecko shows BCH as having zero development going on
