Payment working group
The Means of Payment and Lightning working group deals with the identification and evaluation of legal ambiguities and risks for lightning service providers as well as private and corporate routing node operators. The aim is to evaluate necessary adjustments to existing laws and propose measures to create legal certainty. This initiative is intended to help create a secure and legally clear environment for the use of the Lightning Network as a means of payment.
No fixed date yet. Probably from 14.1.25 every 2 weeks on Tuesdays from 2 to 3 pm via Hivetalk Meet
ESG working group
The ESG Valuation working group deals with the valuation of Bitcoin in the context of environmental, social and governance (ESG). The aim is to proactively develop standards and criteria before external actors do so. This is particularly relevant for Bitcoin holders and service providers as they need to integrate these assessments into their ESG reports. Members of this working group are working to develop sound and transparent assessment methods that meet the specific requirements and benefits of Bitcoin.
from 6.1.25 every 2 weeks on Mondays from 6-7 p.m.
Bitcoin Reserve Working Group
The BTC Reserve working group is campaigning for the Federal Republic of Germany to set up a state Bitcoin reserve. The aim is to hold Bitcoin that has already been collected for the long term and not to sell it. This initiative is intended to strengthen Germany’s financial stability and independence by using Bitcoin as a strategic reserve similar to gold. Members of this working group are working on concepts and strategies to support the implementation and management of such a reserve
