Bitcoin Optech newsletter #299 is here:
- newsletter describes a proposal to relay weak blocks to improve compact block performance in a network with multiple divergent mempool policies
- announces the addition of five BIP editors
- summarizes popular Q&A from Stack Exchange
- Optech Newsletter #299 Recap on Twitter Spaces

Greg Sanders posted to Delving Bitcoin about using weak blocks to improve compact block relay, particularly in the presence of divergent policies for transaction relay and mining. A weak block is a block with insufficient proof-of-work (PoW) to become the next block on the blockchain but which otherwise has a valid structure and set of valid transactions...

After public discussion, the following contributors have been made BIP editors: Bryan “Kanzure” Bishop, Jon Atack, Mark “Murch” Erhardt, Olaoluwa “Roasbeef” Osuntokun, and Ruben Somsen.

Selected Q&A from Bitcoin Stack Exchange:
- Where exactly is the “off-by-one” difficulty bug?
- How is P2TR different than P2PKH using opcodes from a developer perspective?
- Are replacement transactions larger in size than their predecessors and than non-RBF transactions?
- Are Bitcoin signatures still vulnerable to nonce reuse?
- How do miners manually add transactions to a block template?
