A library for working with Bitcoin
On a MacBook pro with this store, the chain can be downloaded at about 2000 blocks per second. Difficulty transitions are not optimized but take around 50 msec. On a Google Nexus S the chain can be downloaded (via wifi) at 200 blocks per second and difficulty traversals take 2 seconds. At this time the profiles on both devices are dominated by verification costs, not storage. |

To get started, ensure you have the latest JDK installed and then just run "ant". - A JAR will be placed in dist/ - JavaDocs will be placed in docs/ - Unit tests will be run Now ensure you're running a BitCoin node locally and run the example app: cd out java com.google.bitcoin.examples.PingService It will print a BitCoin address. If you send coins to it, you should get them back a few minutes later when a block is solved.
