===============================================
ElectrumX - Reimplementation of electrum-server
===============================================

:Licence: MIT
:Language: Python (>= 3.5.1)
:Author: Neil Booth

Getting Started
===============

See `docs/HOWTO.rst`_.

Features
========

- Efficient, lightweight reimplementation of electrum-server
- Efficient synchronization of bitcoin mainnet from Genesis. Recent
hardware should synchronize in well under 24 hours. The fastest
time to height 448k (mid January 2017) reported is under 4h 30m. On
the same hardware JElectrum would take around 4 days and
electrum-server probably around 1 month.
- The full Electrum protocol is implemented. The only exception is
the blockchain.address.get
