Stack: Rust · Go · Kotlin (Android) · Bitcoin Dev Kit · Lightning
Psychemist is building directly at the Bitcoin application and library layer with a clear trajectory toward protocol-level contribution.
Current work:
- BDK QR WIF sweep on Android — building a Kotlin/Android tool to sweep wallet keys via QR + WIF format using Bitcoin Dev Kit
- BIP375 in Go — implementing the Silent Payment Output Descriptors spec in Go
- rust-ldk contribution — contributing to LDK (Lightning Dev Kit), the Rust Lightning implementation used in production wallets
Next target: Bitcoin Core FFI/RPC interface issues — the bridge between Core and higher-level applications.
Psychemist is one of the few Code Orange contributors working across multiple Bitcoin layers simultaneously — Android wallet tooling, Go protocol implementations, and Rust Lightning. The BIP375 Go implementation is particularly notable: it fills a gap in non-Rust BIP352/375 tooling that the broader ecosystem needs.
