Slingshot Node

Blockchain node application.

Creating a new blockchain

Choose a prefix for the addresses and create a new ledger:

cargo run -- new --prefix=test

This generates a random block signing key and places it in <blockchain.storage_path>/signer.key.

Also generates a wallet key and places it in <wallet.storage_path>/wallet.xprv

(Encryption and external signers will be available later.)

TBD: Connecting to an existing blockchain

TODO: we need a format for bootstrap data (utreexo commitment, address prefix, signer key)

Choose a prefix for the addresses and create a new ledger:

cargo run -- connect ...

This generates a wallet key and places it in <wallet.storage_path>/wallet.xprv

(Encryption and external signers will be available later.)

Starting the node

Launch the initialized node to catchup with the network:

cargo run -- run

Then, open http://localhost:3000 in your browser.
