### Introduction

- What I'm doing and what is my actual situation
    - Working on c-lightning with bug fixing and user support
    - Working on https://lnmetrics.info/
    - Boring University Exam
    - Working on Bitcoin core, with small PR
- Best usage of the Brink grant in the lightning world
    - Possibility to work close to the Blockstream team, if they are interested to use in the best way the Brink grant.
- Rust contribution
    - Working on a rust transpiler to make an easy generation of ln node data model https://github.com/vincenzopalazzo/monkey-scheme
    - Implementing a rust plugin wrapper for c-lighting https://github.com/laanwj/rust-clightning-rpc
    - If Blockstream was not interested, and also for possible future work with rust-lightning could be a good idea for me
    - but I would like to continue with c-lightning to avoid losing the work that I did in this period.
- Bitcoin Core possible contribution
    - I'm passing time to see the issue on Bitcoin core and try to propose some PR, I would be happy to have some
    - contact with the bitcoin maintainer and help in the bitcoin developing process, and if the time will be enough maybe receive some funding about that
- PhD ideas
    - I noted that MIT has some researchers inside the Bitcoin Core team, I am not very sure about my Ph, but I would be 
    - interested to know if there is some connection between MIT and Bitcoin Open Source work, in particular on lightning?
    - This is only an idea, I would like to take more time, and also make the PhD propose also for ASU.
- There is some way to spam the my reasearch project?
    - Would be interested to have more data collected by the user, to make the reaseach not only and accademic thesis
