Bitcoin has a new lead developer, Wladimir van der Laan, and with the ecosystem growing every day he is going to have a lot on his hands over the next year. We asked Van der Laan what major issues affecting the bitcoin core are on his radar. Here are his four main priorities: 1. Splitting off the Bitcoin-Qt wallet from the P2P core code. At the moment, the core functions of the bitcoin client, processing new transactions and maintaining the history of old transactions, share the space as information about the wallet you set up using the client.

Peter Todd: SPV Client Majority Could Lead to Miner Malfeasance

The Simplified Payment Verification protocol was envisioned by Satoshi Nakamoto in the Bitcoin white paper. He also mentioned it later on, saying that he figured the future would involve most people using such things. I anticipate there will never be more than 100K nodes, probably less. It will reach an equilibrium where it's not worth it for more nodes to join in. The rest will be lightweight clients, which could be millions. If you're not familiar with what an SPV client is, it's a Bitcoin wallet like Multibit, which only reads the block headers rather than downloading the entire....
