  • Release candidate 2 for CLN 26.06. Documentation and gRPC interface refinements on top of rc1's graceful command, sendamount RPC, and BOLT12 payer-proof support. Routing-node operators should test on a non-production node before adopting.
• Eclair 0.14.0 — 2026-05-21
  • Significant Lightning release from ACINQ. Final versions of channel splicing, simple taproot channels, and zero-fee commitments all ship in this version.

This is the biggest privacy upgrade of the fortnight in any consumer-facing Bitcoin wallet, and the airgapped-signer support means Coldcard and similar users get it without going hot.
• Sparrow Frigate 1.5.3 — 2026-05-30
  • Adds a privacy-preserving hourly aggregate of historical scan stats, locally generated server.features response when the backend returns a method-not-found error, improvements to the hosts field in server.features.

• JoinMarket-NG 0.31.1 — 2026-05-30
  • Privacy-critical fix: prevents a Sybil DoS where relayed !hp2 floods could starve a maker's own post-ioauth commitment broadcasts. Also installs whiptail in maker and taker container images so the jm-ng TUI works out of the box. JoinMarket-NG continues to ship hardening on a tight cadence.
• Tor Browser 15.0.14 — 2026-05-19 (borderline, in grace)
  • Important Firefox security updates rolled in.
• Mullvad Browser 15.0.14 — 2026-05-19 (borderline, in grace)

A weekly live show covering all things Freedom Tech with Max, Q and Seth.

In this week’s Freedom Tech Friday, Max welcomed back Zach Herbert, CEO of Foundation, for a deep dive into practical health sovereignty, starting at home. We moved beyond Bitcoin, seed phrases, and secure elements to the everyday systems thinking Zach has applied to his own biology. We tackled the big three of home optimisation; water, air, and light.

Max and Zach explored how to choose and install reverse osmosis with remineralisation (and why it matters), whole‑home and countertop options for renters, UV sterilisation, shower filters, and the very real issues of PFAS, fluoride, and microplastics. On air, we explored CO₂ monitoring, ERV/HRV ventilation, humidification/dehumidification strategies, realistic budgets for owners and renters, and why indoor CO₂ quietly wrecks performance and sleep. When it came to light, they contrasted high‑CRI, no‑flicker LEDs with incandescents, circadian effects, dim‑to‑warm setups, and why harsh, blue‑heavy flicker can spike stress and fatigue, especially for kids.

Max and Zach then dug into targeted personal health: why genetic insights should precede bloods, balancing privacy with utility, and how DNA variants (MTHFR, vitamin D conversion, dopamine response, drug metabolism) can explain lab results and guide smarter supplementation (methylated B vitamins, vitamin D) and protocols (sauna, blood donation trade‑offs). They also hit practicals on electrolyte quality and salt (ditch stevia/citric acid, choose clean salts), everyday toxin minimisation (tallow skincare, hydroxyapatite toothpaste, cleaner hair care), and a level‑headed take on parasites and ivermectin.

The theme throughout: use tech to restore a more natural environment and reclaim health autonomy without going “100‑step protocol” make quick wins for renters and owners alike that compound over years for you and your family.
