About This Event

Bitshala BOSS Summit 2026: Bitcoin Open-Source Collaboration

Bitshala BOSS Summit 2026 brings Bitcoin open-source contributors together in Jaipur for focused technical exchange. Developers, designers, researchers and educators can share work, examine difficult problems and find collaborators.

Bitshala’s broader mission is to support Bitcoin free and open-source software through practical education and contributor development. The summit reflects that approach through small-group learning and peer discussion.

The programme also references Bitmela — Edition 01 on October 30–31. Attendees must check their own access arrangements: the publicly listed BOSS Sessions Pass does not include a Bitmela ticket.

Participation and confidentiality

The intended audience includes active Bitcoin developers, reviewers, maintainers, designers, educators and researchers. For invited participation, applicants are asked to explain what they are building (with relevant work links), the problems they would bring for discussion, and their ability to attend the advertised programme.

The official site describes some discussions under the Chatham House Rule; not all sessions are publicly recorded or attributable.

Venue and travel

Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. The exact address is shared through registration and organizer confirmation. Accommodation, travel and family-member costs are not included in the paid Sessions Pass.
