Spaces on Bitcoin

Checkout releases for an immediately usable binary version of this software.

What does it do?

Spaces are sovereign Bitcoin identities. They leverage the existing infrastructure and security of Bitcoin without requiring a new blockchain or any modifications to Bitcoin itself learn more.

spaced is a tiny layer that connects to Bitcoin Core over RPC and scans transactions relevant to the protocol.

space-cli is a Bitcoin wallet that supports opening auctions, bidding and registering spaces.

Development setup on testnet4

Setup

First, download Bitcoin Core and set it up to connect to testnet4 using these steps:

mkdir $HOME/bitcoin-testnet4

# Create a configuration file with RPC credentials
echo "rpcuser=testnet4" > $HOME/bitcoin-testnet4/bitcoin.conf
echo "rpcpassword=testnet4" >> $HOME/bitcoin-testnet4/bitcoin.conf

# Start Bitcoin Core specifying testnet4 network
bitcoind -testnet4 -datadir=$HOME/bitcoin-testnet4

Next, run spaced with the following:

spaced --chain testnet4 --bitcoin-rpc-user testnet4 --bitcoin-rpc-password testnet4
