(BOP) calls the open-source software, "Red Hat for Bitcoin."
The BOP Enterprise Bitcoin Server is a redone version of the core software originally designed by Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto that communicates with other computers on the Bitcoin network. Bits of Proof founder Tamas Blummer has reworked the algorithm using his own code, creating an entirely new version of the software. He then developed a messaging system allowing third-party software to communicate with it using standard web and mobile device protocols.
The result, Blummer says, is a high-performance, scalable Bitcoin node that enterprise developers don't have to tinker with. It offers virtually zero setup time and hassle, he claims. Instead, developers can concentrate on quickly rolling out their Bitcoin applications and services.
The software, which uses the Java programming framework, uses multi-threaded transaction validation. This means that its performance scales with the number of processors available on the hardware used.
"Satoshi is a genius, but his implementation of the protocol is hard to maintain and extend," Blummer wrote in November, when he first made the code available for community review. "I believe that peers will specialize and this implementation is suited for the big server, tailored for some heavy lifting tasks, not for a mobile."
At the Bitcoin 2013 conference this weekend, attendees will see a public demonstration of the product. They will also get complimentary three-month access to the server, which the company says represents a $650 value.

Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.
Lo que debes saber:
Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
