Summer of bitcoin

Bitcoin Core Developer

Jun 2021 – Oct 2021 · 4 mos · Remote

The Bitcoin mainnet contains the feature of performing chain re-orgs in the case of conflicting chains by prioritizing the one with the strongest proof of work. However, this has not been implemented yet in the Bitcoin Signet network.
Funded by Summer of Bitcoin, my project and role includes:
Implementing chain reorgs in the Bitcoin Signet network
Improve the Signet Faucet's current behaviour with a custom signet network
Understanding the underlying architecture, improving test coverage etc
