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.

Generating and Working With ScriptPubKeys in Bitcoin Transactions
Bitcoin transactions involve locking funds in scripts, which can only be spent if those locking conditions are met. The part of the script that expresses these locking conditions are called ScriptPubKeys. On the other hand, the part that provides unlocking scripts to satisfy the locking conditions is referred to as ScriptSig for legacy transactions, and ScriptWitness for SegWit Transactions. These scripts are evaluated by a stack-based language called Script. This article will mainly focus on ScriptPubKeys.

How are Cold Wallets made?
The purpose of Bitcoin was not to create a means to keep your wealth in your memory. Seed phrases were proposed and implemented 4 years after Bitcoin’s release in BIP-39.

CHIP-2023-01 Excessive Block-size Adjustment Algorithm (EBAA) for Bitcoin Cash Based on Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA)
BIP101 doubles every 2 years with linear interpolation. If we used that, the block size limit as of a couple minutes ago would have been 188,938,289 bytes. That's pretty close to what I think the safe limit actually is right now.
This is a variation of the above but where nodes would accept to automatically execute some adjustment in their consensus-sensitive policies, and in response to coinbase or block header messages. Notable proposal of this category was BIP-0105, and the idea resurfaced in a recent discussion with zawy.

Bitcoin Secure Multisig Setup (BSMS) Backup
I am trying to learn more about the best practices and tools to backup the Bitcoin Secure Multisig Setup (BSMS). When you create a multisig wallet, the coordinator app usually creates a .bsms file with all the descriptors to recreate the wallet. This is described on BIP129: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0129.mediawiki But having access to that file reveals the funds of the multisig wallet, so I think is not a good idea to store it in plain text. It should at least be encrypted so you can decide who can access it. Splitting the BSMS content into multiple QRs shares would be ideal, so you can distribute each share in different locations.

How to make a custom private key [in python] and import it in a Bitcoin wallet?
If you want to use a password like this consider a key derivation function like pbkdf2. (This does not make it safe but you begin to stray away from old brain wallets that are all compromised already see https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer )

What is your view on brain wallets.
Your wording attempts to fool people into using brainwallets by appealing to ego. Nobody has the ability to make a passphrase from their brain with sufficient entropy to be secure. Stop promoting insecure methods https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer

where can I download software on PC to brute force bitcoin? just for the fun to try
Brainflayer discovers single keys created by hashing low-entropy "brain passwords". It pre-dates HD wallets, pre-dates SegWit https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer

How is Bitcoin 'unconfiscatable' if you should not use a brainwallet?
Brainwallet normally means something easy to remember, and therefore easy to brute force. See brainflayer, a tool for stealing coins from brainwallets https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer

btcrecover - BTCRecover is an open source wallet password and seed recovery tool. For seed based recovery, this is primarily useful in situations where you have lost/forgotten parts of your mnemonic, or have made an error transcribing it. (So you are either seeing an empty wallet or gettign an error that your seed is invalid) For wallet password or passphrase recovery, it is primarily useful if you have a reasonable idea about what your password might be.
