See the disclaimer below. Overview Subcoin is a full node implementation of Bitcoin in Rust, built using the polkadot-sdk (formerly Substrate) framework. By leveraging Substrate's modular and flexible architecture, Subcoin aims to offer a robust and performant implementation of Bitcoin protocol. It is the first Bitcoin client that introduces the decentralized fast sync into the Bitcoin ecosystem, a syncing strategy common in newer blockchains (Ethereum, Polkadot, Near, etc) with a global chain state. Features - 🔄 Fast Sync . Employs Substrate's advanced state sync strategy, enabling Bitcoin fast sync by downloading all headers and the state at a specific block, in decentralized manner. This allows new users to quickly sync to the latest state of the Bitcoin chain by running a Subcoin node. - 🔗 Substrate Integration . Utilizes Substrate framework to provide production-level blockchain infrastructures. Development Status Subcoin currently includes a tentative implementation for syncing as a Bitcoin full node, along with an early version of the fast sync feature. However, due to limitations, syncing to the tip of the Bitcoin network using fast sync is not feasible when the chain state becomes large. We are actively exploring solutions to address this limitation, which will be supported in future updates. It's important to note that Subcoin is still under active development ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/subcoin-project","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/subcoin-project/subcoin/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
