AI leads with eight releases, Self-hosting and Bitcoin trail

By Freedom.Tech September 29, 2026 · Edited September 29, 2026
AI claimed eight of twenty-eight items on the wire, all infrastructure and SDK maintenance. openclaw 2026.8.33 arrived as the first extended-stable gateway release, equivalent to LTS. Anthropic shipped Claude Code 2.1.284 with Sonnet 5.5 as the new default, and a matching Agent SDK release. Mistral, LangChain, DeepSeek, llama.cpp, and MiniMax all logged minor versioning. Self-hosting posted five: Nextcloud Desktop, AdGuardHome beta, StartWRT with Wi-Fi regulatory support, Immich, and Audiobookshelf. Bitcoin logged six, led by Fedimint's first Android SDK beta and Blockstream Green iOS 5.7.0 with manual coin selection. Privacy beat logged five across Nostr VPN, uBlock Origin, GopenPGP, and Am I Exposed. Nostr saw four small releases. No protocol work. No CVEs beyond the LTS tag.
