The Block-backed open-source group wants proposals that could grow Bitcoin payment adoption within five years Spiral, the open-source Bitcoin initiative backed by Block, is asking the public for big ideas. Specifically, it wants ideas that could increase Bitcoin payment adoption within five years. The invitation, posted on X, frames the question around a five-year window. Calling these ideas “moonshots” sets expectations. Spiral is not asking for minor tweaks to an existing wallet interface. This is not a formal prize competition. There is no specific public contest attached to the call. Instead, the request sits alongside Spiral’s existing grants program, which already accepts detailed proposals from outside developers. That grants program has some scale behind it. It has funded hundreds of contributors, drawn from more than a dozen countries.
