    <p>
      Chaincode supports Bitcoin through open-source engineering, research, and
      education.
    </p>
    <p>
      Engineers and researchers at Chaincode are free to pursue the Bitcoin
      open-source projects they believe are most important. Members of our team
      have contributed to Bitcoin Core, the Lightning Network protocol, and
      novel cryptography that is relevant to Bitcoin.
    </p>
    <p>
      We also design and run educational programs that help current and future
      contributors build the knowledge and skills needed to participate in
      Bitcoin's development. Our goal is to support both the work being done
      today and the people who will shape Bitcoin's future.
