On September 17, as officially reported, Maelstrom—Arthur Hayes’ family office—announced the allocation of the inaugural grant from its Bitcoin developer program to contributor Rkrux. This funding will enable Rkrux to dedicate his efforts to Bitcoin Core on a full-time basis. While the exact funding amount remains undisclosed, this initiative marks a significant step in advancing Bitcoin development. Notably, in mid-July, BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes revealed that Maelstrom had established this grant program to support Bitcoin developers actively.
