CoinClustering

Address clustering for bitcoin based cryptocurrencies

Under construction!

Prerequisites

Node and NPM

Bitcoin core or API compatible client such as Litecoin core or Dash core

bitcoin.conf / dash.conf / litecoin.conf...

server=1
txindex=1
rest=1
rpcuser=[your username]
rpcpassword=[your password]

Installation

1. npm install -g coin-clustering
2. Create a new directory, for example 'BitcoinClustering'
3. Navigate to the directory and create a new file "config.js"
4. Edit config.js according to the below example. Altcoin excamples can be found here.

let config = {
  protocol: 'http',
  user: '[rpcuser from bitcoin.conf]',
  pass: '[rpcpassword from bitcoin.conf]',
  host: '127.0.0.1',
  port: 8332,
  listen_port: 3006,
  pubkeyhash: 0x00,
  scripthash: 0x05,
  segwitprefix: "bc",
  dbcache: 3000
};

module.exports = config; 

5. run coin-clustering in the same directory with config.js

Indexing the bitcoin blockchain can take more or less than a week depending on your hardware. Most altcoins should take much shorter.

Limitations

Stays 10 blocks behind the latest block to avoid having to deal with blockchain reorganizations.
