Hello Everyone,<= br>

What?

Can we request all Bitcoin projects = to create a file 'bips.txt' with a format that describes all the BIPs used = in the project?

How?

The file can be uploa= ded to the root of website used for the project. For example: BTCPay can ha= ve this file at:  https://btcpayserver.org/bips.txt in below format:

BIP78

BIP N= umber:
= Details:
BIP = Number
= Details:
Why?

Bitcoin Improvement = Proposals play an important role in Bitcoin and this will make it easier fo= r users, other devs, journalists, researchers, crawlers etc. to understand = all BIPs used in different Bitcoin Projects, their implementation and impor= tance. 

Every BIP with details is menti= oned here already: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips however I don't think all = the devs who initially start researching about Bitcoin or the users really = understand their importance, usage etc. So I am also trying to create BIPs = gallery which has basic images for each BIP right now and later will includ= e a page to have video links, usage, issues, history, other helpful li= nks etc. later for each.


Website that= I am working on: https://bips.gallery/ 
Github repository for it: = ;https:= //github.com/prayank23/BIPsGallery
