RBTC

An minimalistic bitcoin-like blockchain implemented in Rust:

• Segwit UTXO model, which implement P2PWPKH-like payment. The input redeem code pk, sig are moved to the witness part.

    pub struct SignedTransaction {
        /// Transaction
        pub transaction: Transaction,
        /// Tx fee 
        pub fee: u32, 
        /// sigature list for each input 
        pub witnesses: Vec<Witness>,
    }
    pub struct Transaction {
        /// Inputs
        pub inputs: Vec<Input>,
        /// Outputs
        pub outputs: Vec<Output>, 
    }
    pub struct Witness{
        pub pubkey : PublicKey, 
        pub sig: Vec<u8>
    }

• K-block confirmation/finalization.
• UTXO and mempool are consistant with the finalized blocks.

Usage

Build project: in /wallet and /node directory, run bash build.sh

Setup keypairs:

• store your Ed25519 keys in Document bytes. The test keys are stored in /keys.
• store the test public key hashes in /pks.txt,which provide quick pkh query. No need for typing the pkh in terminal again.
  Using wallet: run ./wallet --help

Tests

• Run uni-tests for node, run cargo test
• Run multi-node test
  • launch 3 nodes
  • in /tests`` dir, run all 3 a2b.sh, b2c.sh, c2d.sh` files in 3 terminal.
  • check the consistency of the finalized block of the three nodes.

Todos:

• add coinbase
