Bitcoin Core developer Gloria Zhao has stepped down as a maintainer and revoked her Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) signing key, ending about six years as one of the project\u2019s gatekeepers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Zhao submitted her last pull request<\/a> to the Bitcoin GitHub repository, removing her key from the trusted keys and withdrawing herself as one of the few maintainers able to update Bitcoin\u2019s software.<\/p>\n

Becoming the first known<\/a> female maintainer in 2022, she focused<\/a> on mempool policy and transaction relay: the rules and peer\u2011to\u2011peer logic that decide which transactions get into nodes\u2019 waiting rooms and how quickly they propagate across the network.\u00a0<\/p>\n
