+### Core BDK
+
+The majority of BDK rust library work this quarter was towards finishing new and improved electrum,  esplora and Bitcoin Core RPC (block-by-block) syncing APIs. Bug fixes and improvements were also completed for the transaction builder and other wallet APIs. Six bi-weekly 1.0.0-alpha releases were made ([alpha.3](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.3), [alpha.4](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.4), [alpha.5](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.5), [alpha.6](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.6), [alpha.7](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.7), [alpha.8](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.8)). For the quarter [54 PRs](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/pulls?q=is%3Apr+merged%3A2024-01-01..2024-03-31+) were merged and [55 issues](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/issues?q=is%3Aissue+closed%3A2024-01-01..2024-03-31+) were closed.
+
+### BDK-FFI
+
+For the language binding libraries (Kotlin, Swift, Python) the focus was on small bug fixes for the pre-1.0 releases ([0.30.0](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk-ffi/releases/tag/v0.31.0) and [0.30.1](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk-ffi/releases/tag/v0.31.1)) and creating the first 1.0.0-alpha bindings release ([1.0.0-alpha.7](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk-ffi/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.7)). For the quarter [23 PRs](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk-ffi/pulls?q=is%3Apr+merged%3A2024-01-01..2024-03-31+) were merged and [8 issues](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk-ffi/issues?q=is%3Aissue+closed%3A2024-01-01..2024-03-31+) closed.
+
+### Plans for Next Quarter
+
+The focus for Q2 development is completing our first 1.0.0 beta release and improving user docs and testing for it. The team will also work on updating all language bindings (Kotlin/Swift/Python) to use new rust lib 1.0.0 beta APIs.
