See LAB.md About the Book Mastering Taproot is a developer-focused, reproducible guide to Bitcoin’s most powerful upgrade — Taproot. This manuscript emphasizes: - full code samples - real testnet transactions - precise stack execution - minimal abstractions The goal is not to “explain concepts”, but to engineer them — from single-leaf script spends, to multi-path Merkle tree constructions, to privacy-preserving control blocks. Foundational Bitcoin engineering knowledge should be reproducible, inspectable, and forkable — therefore this work is published open-access. --- Audience This project is intended for: - Developers learning Bitcoin programming through hands-on construction (Chapters 1–8 provide a complete on-ramp) - Bitcoin protocol engineers and Script / Taproot developers - Wallet and key management system designers - Researchers studying Schnorr signatures, Merkle commitments, or Taproot privacy - Anyone interested in Taproot's advanced applications: Ordinals, RGB, Lightning, and Silent Payments (Chapters 9–12) --- Status The book text and figures can still change. The code under code/ for all 12 chapters is complete and stable : each folder has Python scripts, a README, and—if a flow needs the network—notes for reproducing it on testnet .
