Bitcoin Purity (BTC1) — October 2026 Ecosystem & Community Update Hello Bitcoin Purity community! October has been an exciting month for Bitcoin Purity, with developments in the software, mining infrastructure, exchange accessibility and community participation. As someone actively involved in the mining community, I believe this BBS has the potential to become a central place for sharing knowledge, discussing improvements and helping newcomers understand the project. I would like to start contributing regular community updates here. Here is a summary of recent developments as of October 25, 2026. 1. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT — v1.1.0 Bitcoin Purity v1.1.0 was officially released on October 23. Key developments include: * Introduction of the Bitcoin Purity Signet network. * Adjustments to several default configurations. * Reduction of the default deep-reorganization parking threshold from six blocks to three. These developments represent continued technical progress and provide new opportunities for testing and development. Official release: https://github.com/saltduck/bitcoinpurity/releases/tag/v1.1.0 2. MINING ECOSYSTEM EXPANSION The BTC1 mining ecosystem continues to develop, with independent pool operators supporting the network. One of the latest additions is Mining-Dutch, offering several reward methods, including SOLO and PPLNS. The community now has access to different mining options suited to a variety of miners. The existing mining pool directory has also been updated recently. Mining pool directory: https://bbs.bitcoinpurity.org/thread/6 Mining-Dutch: https://www.mining-dutch.nl/pools/bitcoinpurity.php I encourage miners to share their experiences with different pools, including stability, latency, payouts and technical support. 3. EXCHANGE ACCESSIBILITY & COMMUNITY EFFORTS Bitcoin Purity has also seen developments in exchange accessibility. Recent community announcements include BTC1/USDT trading on NeoxEX. Additionally, a community-funded listing campaign is underway on NonKYC. Campaign: https://nonkyc.io/listing/campaign/BTC1 The NonKYC campaign is not the same as a completed exchange listing. The community’s willingness to collaborate on these initiatives is encouraging. Nevertheless, exchange availability, liquidity and deposit or withdrawal conditions should always be independently verified. 4. USEFUL RESOURCES For newcomers and existing community members: Official website: https://bitcoinpurity.org/ GitHub: https://github.com/saltduck/bitcoinpurity Blockchain explorer: https://mempool.bitcoinpurity.org/ Wallet configuration: https://bitcoinpurity.org/users.html Bitcoin Purity retains transaction compatibility without transaction-level replay protection. Users should understand the related risks before transferring funds. 5. LET’S BUILD A MORE ACTIVE BBS I believe there is an opportunity to make this forum more useful to everyone involved in Bitcoin Purity. Some ideas for future contributions: * Weekly ecosystem and network updates. * Beginner-friendly wallet and mining tutorials. * Mining pool experiences and configuration discussions. * Educational articles explaining BTC1 technology. * Community feedback and constructive suggestions. But I would also like to hear from you. What would you like to see more of on this forum? Which aspects of Bitcoin Purity deserve better documentation or explanation? Would you find regular community and network updates useful? The success of an open-source project depends not only on its developers, but also on people willing to learn, contribute, question and share knowledge. Let’s make this BBS a valuable resource for the entire Bitcoin Purity community.
