Bitcoin UTXO & xPub Management Engine
TLDR;
Application developers should focus on their applications and should not be bogged down with managing UTXOs or XPubs. Developers should be able to use an open-source, easy to install solution to rapidly build full-featured Bitcoin applications.
BUX is still considered "ALPHA" and should not be used in production until a major v1.0.0 is released.
- xPub & UTXO State Management (state, balance, utxos, destinations)
- Bring your own Database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Mongo or interface your own)
- Caching (FreeCache, Redis or interface your own)
- Task Management (TaskQ or interface your own)
- Transaction Syncing (queue, broadcast, push to mempool or on-chain, or interface your own)
- Future plugins using BRFC standards
- No private keys are used, only the xPub (or access key) is given to bux
- (BYOX)
Bring your own xPub
- Signing a transaction is outside this application (IE: bux-server or bux-client)
- All transactions need to be submitted to the bux service to effectively track utxo states
- Database can be backed up, but not regenerated from chain
- Certain data is not on chain, plus re-scanning an xPub is expensive and not easily possible with 3rd party limitations
bux requires a supported release of Go.

Package Dependencies
Library Deployment
Releases are automatically created when you create a new git tag!
If you want to manually make releases, please install GoReleaser:
goreleaser for easy binary or library deployment to GitHub and can be installed:
- using make:
make install-releaser
- using brew:
brew install goreleaser
The .goreleaser.yml file is used to configure goreleaser.
Automatic releases via GitHub Actions from creating a new tag:
make tag version=1.2.3
Use make release-snap
to create a snapshot version of the release, and finally make release
to ship to production (manually).
