How this service works
Latest releases of Bitcoin Core and the Lightning implementations (LND, Core Lightning, Eclair, LDK) as JSON: version, date, days since release, link to notes, and a plain keyword flag when notes mention security fixes. Read live from GitHub.
Output
A JSON object containing, for each tracked project (Bitcoin Core, LND, Core Lightning, Eclair, LDK): the latest version string, release date, number of days since that release, a URL linking to the official release notes, and a boolean or keyword flag indicating whether the release notes mention security fixes.
Example use cases
Security patch alerting for node operators
“Check if any of the major Bitcoin or Lightning software projects — Bitcoin Core, LND, Core Lightning, Eclair, or LDK — have released a security fix recently that I should know about as a node operator.”
Dashboard for Bitcoin software freshness
“Pull the current release info for Bitcoin Core and all the main Lightning implementations so I can see which ones are overdue for an update and which have the most recent releases.”
Automated release changelog digest
“Get me the latest versions and release note links for Bitcoin Core, LND, and Core Lightning so I can summarize what changed and share it in our weekly Bitcoin developer newsletter.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://btc-radar.vercel.app/bitcoin/releases?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a single aggregated snapshot of release status across all major Bitcoin and Lightning Network software projects, especially when checking for security-related releases. It is preferable to scraping individual GitHub repos manually and is purpose-built for Bitcoin infrastructure monitoring use cases.
Side effects
- GitHub rate limiting may cause stale or missing data
- A project with no recent GitHub release will return null or empty fields
- Network timeout from Vercel to GitHub may result in a 503 or partial response
- Incorrectly parsed security keyword flag if release notes use non-standard phrasing
