Thanks for reporting this.
(a) the used version of BitcoinUnlimited in the bitcoin-qt snap is compatible with the BTC network and there are no CVEs for this version
(b) the bitcoin snap stopped updating automatically and thus got stuck at an older version, I will check why this happened
(c) I have removed the links of the bitcoin snap and will enter new information once I have established which links are the correct ones to use
(d) please see c
(e) the snap uses the official Github repositories of BitcoinCore and BitcoinUnlimited.
I will contact Canonical and see how I can make these snaps better so that it is more clear to the user what he downloads and installs.
In regards to bitcoin-ec I have not found a way to remove the package from the snap store. I will check with Canonical if this is possible.
