Why We’re Supporting Bitcoin Dev Kit Foundation

We’re proud to share that AnchorWatch is now a corporate member of the Bitcoin Dev Kit (BDK) Foundation.

As a Lloyd’s of London Coverholder offering insured Bitcoin custody using our Trident Vault using Miniscript, AnchorWatch is committed to advancing the infrastructure that makes secure, high-assurance Bitcoin custody possible. And that infrastructure starts with open-source tools like BDK.

What Is BDK?

The Bitcoin Dev Kit is a foundational suite of open-source libraries used to build Bitcoin wallets and custody solutions. It’s maintained by a small, focused team of developers, and it powers critical Bitcoin software, including components of our own Trident Vault architecture.

BDK’s support for advanced scripting tools like Miniscript enables features that make secure, governed custody possible. Without tools like this, building robust, secure Bitcoin systems would be slower, harder, and more error-prone.

Why It Matters to AnchorWatch

At AnchorWatch, we’re building solutions that help individuals and institutions hold meaningful amounts of Bitcoin with confidence. We’re also building on the work of open-source contributors whose tools form the bedrock of modern Bitcoin infrastructure.

Supporting the BDK Foundation is our way of giving back and helping ensure the continued development of the software we all rely on.

A Shared Mission

The BDK Foundation exists to promote the common interests of the Bitcoin software development industry. That includes maintaining free and open-source tools, hosting forums for developer education, and fostering collaboration across the ecosystem.

We believe Bitcoin deserves professional-grade infrastructure. That means strong custody, regulated insurance, and robust open-source foundations.

We’re here to help build them.
