Hi Parminder, > Are you planning to support most of the common BIP standards. e.g BIP 44, 84 etc
Yes, I am hoping to and actively working on it in the wallet framework/template code. I've also opened a few related issues: https://github.com/bitcoinj/bitcoinj/issues/1825 https://github.com/bitcoinj/bitcoinj/issues/1869 (this one inspired by your email) > (It'll make life easy with hardware wallets ). That is the motivating application for my present work. > This is the only advance / maintained java bitcoin lib that i have found, but now it seems to be lagging behind js, C# etc. It seems bitcoinj is getting more contribution these days and is making good progress. I hope we can catch up. > are [you] planning to focus on this? For now yes, and would be happy to receive some sponsorship (please reach out to me privately) > can we make a list of things-to-do then let others support those features? Yes, I suppose we should do this with a Github issue(s) or milestones. Andreas, what did you use for tracking Segwit? I would also like to improve the documentation and tutorials at some point in the near future. (I have some ideas on how to do this.) -- Sean On 5/30/19 10:22 AM, Parminder oz wrote: > Hi Sean, > > I support this idea.
