Bit is Python's `fastest <https://ofek.github.io/bit/guide/intro.html#why-bit>`_
Bitcoin library and was designed from the beginning to feel intuitive, be
effortless to use, and have readable source code. It is heavily inspired by
`Requests <https://github.com/requests/requests>`_ and
`Keras <https://github.com/keras-team/keras>`_.
**Bit is so easy to use, in fact, you can do this:**
.. code-block:: python
>>> from bit import Key
>>>
>>> my_key = Key(...)
>>> my_key.get_balance('usd')
'12.51'
>>>
>>> # Let's donate!
>>> outputs = [
>>> # Wikileaks
>>> ('1HB5XMLmzFVj8ALj6mfBsbifRoD4miY36v', 0.0035, 'btc'),
>>> # Internet Archive
>>> ('1Archive1n2C579dMsAu3iC6tWzuQJz8dN', 190, 'jpy'),
>>> # The Pirate Bay
>>> ('129TQVAroeehD9fZpzK51NdZGQT4TqifbG', 3, 'eur'),
>>> # xkcd
>>> ('14Tr4HaKkKuC1Lmpr2YMAuYVZRWqAdRTcr', 2.5, 'cad')
>>> ]
>>>
>>> my_key.send(outputs)
'9f59f5c6757ec46fdc7440acbeb3920e614c8d1d247ac174eb6781b832710c1c'
Here is the transaction `<https://blockchain.info/tx/9f59f5c6757ec46fdc7440acbeb3920e614c8d1d247ac174eb6781b832710c1c>`_.
Features
--------
- Python's fastest available implementation (100x faster than closest library)
- Seamless integration with existing server setups
- Supports keys in cold storage
- Fully supports 25 different currencies
- First class support for storing data in the blockchain
- Deterministic signatures via RFC 6979
- Access to the blockchain (and testnet chain) through multiple APIs for redundancy
- Exchange rate API, with optional caching
- Optimal transaction fee API, with optional caching
- Compressed public keys by default
- Multiple representations of private keys; WIF, PEM, DER, etc.
- Legacy P2PKH and Segwit nested-P2WPKH transactions
- Legacy P2SH and Segwit nested-P2WSH transactions
If you are intrigued, continue reading. If not, continue all the same!
Installation
------------
Bit is distributed on `PyPI`_ as a universal wheel and is available on Linux/macOS
and Windows and supports Python 3.5+ and PyPy3.5-v5.7.1+. ``pip`` >= 8.1.2 is required.
