## Historique du projet et usages

bcoin is an alternative Bitcoin protocol implementation written for Node.js, with full-node, SPV-node, wallet, mining-backend, layer-2-backend, and library use cases.

### Historique du projet

The GitHub repository was created in 2014. The README describes bcoin as an alternative implementation of the Bitcoin protocol in JavaScript and C/C++ for Node.js, aware of known consensus rules and usable as a production consensus backend and wallet system.

The project reached a 1.0.0 tag after a beta series and later published 2.x releases, while retaining command-line entry points such as bcoin, bcoin-cli, bcoin-node, bwallet, and bwallet-cli.

### Historique d'adoption

bcoin's adoption is more specialized than general Bitcoin Core tooling. Its README names Purse.io as a production user and frames bcoin as a library/backend for services that want Bitcoin protocol behavior inside a Node.js stack.

In package-manager terms, Homebrew packaging made the node and wallet CLIs easy to install on developer workstations, but the supplied package facts show a narrower package-manager footprint than older Unix utilities.

### Modes d'utilisation

Developers use bcoin as a full node, SPV node, wallet backend, mining backend with getblocktemplate support, layer-2 backend, or general-purpose Bitcoin library.

Configuration and API credentials are commonly placed in bcoin and wallet config files under ~/.bcoin, including network-specific subdirectories.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

bcoin is package-nerd interesting because it packages a cryptocurrency full-node stack as a Node.js developer tool, rather than as the canonical C++ Bitcoin Core lineage.

It represents a period when alternative protocol implementations mattered for ecosystem diversity, service integration, and testing assumptions against more than one codebase.

### Chronologie

- 2014: GitHub repository created.
- 2017: README copyright range includes Christopher Jeffrey through 2017 and documents production use.
- 2018: v1.0.0-era release tags established after beta tags.
- 2020s: v2.x tags published; Homebrew continues to package the CLI.

### Related projects

- Bitcoin Core is the canonical Bitcoin implementation that bcoin contrasts with as an alternative implementation.
- Node.js and npm-style application stacks are the natural integration environment.
- Wallet, SPV, mining, and Lightning/layer-2 systems are listed upstream as bcoin use cases.
