Moria Protocol has rolled out MUSDv1, a major upgrade to Bitcoin Cash’s first on-chain stablecoin, introducing borrower-set interest rates and removing the $1M mint cap. Now, users can choose their own rates — opting for lower costs (with higher redemption risk) or pricier but more secure loans — while loans themselves become tradeable NFTs. The system maintains stability by prioritizing redemptions on the lowest-rate loans and liquidating undercollateralized positions (below 120%). For more info visit moria.money/v1.

The latest release of BCHD (v0.21.1) brings significant upgrades to Bitcoin Cash’s Go-based full node, including one-hour FastSync, built-in address/UTXO indexing, and a streamlined gRPC API that replaces clunky legacy systems like JSON-RPC. Developers can now ditch extra indexing servers (Electrum X, BitPay Insight) since BCHD handles everything in a single application — making it a leaner backbone for wallets, explorers, and BCH apps. The update also implements the recent Bitcoin Cash improvement proposals (CHIP-2021–05 and CHIP-2024–07) for enhanced scripting capabilities.

John Moriarty of Bitcoin Out Loud has successfully crowdfunded 11.56 BCH through FundMe.cash to produce an educational video explaining Bitcoin Cash’s CHIP (Cash Improvement Proposal) process. The video will break down how decentralized networks like Bitcoin Cash coordinate upgrades without centralized leadership, using the CHIP framework that has guided all recent BCH protocol improvements. Moriarty’s script emphasizes the CHIP process’s role in preventing contentious chain splits while maintaining true decentralization — covering all 12 sections of a typical CHIP document from technical specifications to stakeholder considerations. The funding covers storyboarding, animation, voiceover work, and production costs for a helpful resource explaining BCH’s governance model to both newcomers and veterans in the cryptocurrency space.
