*Schnorr signatures* and *Taproot* are proposed changes to the Bitcoin
23
-
protocol that promise greatly improved privacy, fungibility, scalability and
24

functionality.

26
-
Bitcoin Optech hosted two seminar format workshops which included a mixture of
27
-
presentations, coding exercises and discussions, and gave engineers at
28
-
member companies an understanding of how these new technologies work and how
29
-
they can be applied to their products and services. The workshops also provided
30
-
engineers an opportunity to take part in the feedback process while these
31
-
technologies are still in the proposal stage.
32
-
33
-
[All material from the workshops][taproot workshop blog post] is available on this website, so engineers can
34

learn about the schnorr/taproot proposals at home.
