Merged PR from @ShaswatGupta9: Updated sync progress function. During initial sync we estimated progress based on number of transactions left to process, instead of time. github.com/bcoin-org/bcoi…

I wrote this text explaining how BIP47 works with an implementation using @Bcoin. If you're new to BIP47, aka Reusable Payment Codes, it's a way of avoiding address reuse while still having a static address.

Pleased to publish my 5th annual Bitcoin node sync performance report! blog.lopp.net/2022-bitcoin-n…

Every Bitcoin node implementation that was actively developed in 2022 ended up seeing sync performance improvements compared to my 2021 tests. You can read my full report at blog.lopp.net/2022-bitcoin-n…

@lopp Well, "full validation" if you don't include taproot. Still waiting for review and approval 👇 github.com/bcoin-org/bcoi…

@Bcoin Full validation sync of @Bcoin v2.2.0 to block 760,000 completed in 1 day, 8 hours, 8 min on my benchmark machine.

Testing full validation sync of @Bcoin 1.0.2 If you try to allocate > 4GB to UTXO cache, you get an assertion failure due to a 32 bit overflow. github.com/bcoin-org/bcoi… When trying to sync with a 4GB cache, getting continuous crashes due to JS heap OOM. github.com/bcoin-org/bcoi…

There isn’t one single program or code that everyone runs, anyone can run their own code, as long as they agree to the consensus rules. The conversation is so cool 😎 and makes me want to play around with some of the other implementations!!
