Same eight projects every Monday. Did the software you run ship, and is it a security release? Mechanism only; no rankings.
Window: tags and releases published 2 Nov to 9 Nov 2026 (SAST, UTC+2). Verified on upstream GitHub release and tag pages and the projects' own release notes; LDK also checked on the GitHub mirror of git.rust-bitcoin.org.
- Bitcoin Core: no release this week (releases; bitcoincore.org; newest is v32.1 / maintenance v31.2, v30.4 and v29.5 from 28 Oct).
- Core Lightning: security release v26.06.10 (4 Nov, 15:34; changelog dated 5 Nov). Upstream recommends the upgrade for responsibly reported fixes in dual funding and splicing (including
tx_signatureschecks), onchaind HTLC resolution, gossip limits, connectd, runes and commando, plugin hooks and hsmd, plus remote-crash hardening; security-fix tests are temporarily withheld. Also: xpay budgets onion hops, askrene prefers shorter routes, andbkpr-dumpincomecsvonly writes a plain.csvin the network directory. - LND: no release this week (releases; newest is v0.21.6-beta / v0.20.7-beta from 31 Oct).
- LDK (rust-lightning): no release this week (GitHub tags mirror; primary git.rust-bitcoin.org tags returned a challenge page at verify time; newest dated tags remain v0.3-rc3 and v0.2.7 from 2 Oct).
- Ollama: v0.40.14 (3 Nov, 03:40) fixed Claude Code output-token limits, cloud web-search decoding, OpenAI-compatible sampler defaults,
/v1/responsesinput handling, ChatGPT disconnect retries and Codex routing checks; v0.40.15 (4 Nov, 00:52) added Xiaomi MiMo's mimo-v2.6 and AutoTrust decision models (AutoTrust on Apple silicon in this release), Kimi Code CLI underollama launch, concurrent recurrent/vision GGUF serving and Qwen3/Qwen3.5 YaRN long-context. - nostr-protocol/nips: no tagged release this week; NIPs are merged continuously (repository).
- Autonomi: Autonomi Node v0.24.0 (5 Nov, 23:14). Upstream release notes cover ML-DSA-65-signed CLI binaries (plus DigiCert EV on Windows), SHA256 checksums, and automatic upgrade of running nodes within a 24-hour staged rollout. Not labelled a security release.
- Monero: no release this week (releases; newest is v0.18.5.4 from 17 Oct).
Lines with no release stay in the list on purpose, so you can compare one week's list with the next. Feature essays remain Wed/Fri; the Monday OSS AI special is separate.
