Yesterday we released Gordian Server, our Bitcoin & Tor installer for the Macintosh. In addition to this release, we continue to support Debian Linux systems and virtual machines with an update to our Bitcoin Standup Scripts.

Bitcoin Standup was one of Blockchain Commons' earliest projects — it was a set of Bitcoin scripts that could be used to easily set up a secure Debian server VPS running Bitcoin. [2/10]

Bitcoin Standup is popular with students and interns taking our "Learning Bitcoin From the Command Line Course" as they could set up an inexpensive VPS server and do their coursework anywhere in the world [3/10] https://github.com/BlockchainCommons/Learning-Bitcoin-from-the-Command-Line

The first is integration with Bitcoin Core 22.0, which required updating to their new methodology for release signing. Now you'll know you're using the most up-to-date Bitcoin Core, with access to i2p, taproot, and more. [5/10] https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/22.0/

The second is integration with Cypherpunkpay, which allows you to optionally install an engine for accepting Bitcoin payments through your Tor service and/or website. [6/10] https://cypherpunkpay.org/

The Cypherpunkpay work was supported by a grant from the @HRF, who was looking for ways to better support activists. This is a small first step. [7/10] https://hrf.org/

We expect there to be more optional integrations like this in the future, giving you the ability to install a variety of Bitcoin and Lightning applications. We are currently testing c-lightning, esplora, and electrum server. [8/10]

As always, you can run these install programs as a VPS Stackscript from Linode or directly from the command-line for a Linux system. We're also working on a major new release for Gordian Server, our integrated Mac installation software, also with more plugins. [9/10]
