Quote from: aleksej996 on December 02, 2017, 08:59:21 PM Could you be more clear on what you are looking for and why Electrum can't help you with it? I don't understand the part where you say that there isn't performance on PoW, nor what you mean by a wallet you get to "work" on. Do you just want a wallet that can send and receive bitcoins? Then Electrum would do the trick. I'm trying to make some optimizations on a lightweight client if possible and right now my focus is on optimizing the PoW function. However, my observation and understanding is that Electrum does not perform PoW but only helps to verify it. Will like to know if there is any other lightweight client that can meet my criteria.

Hi, may I know if there is a lightweight client that I can work on instead of the full node (e.g. Bitcoin Core)? Wanted to work on Electrum but it seems like there isn't performance on PoW.

Hi, I'd like to know if anyone is able to provide a brief summary the optimizations in the following blockchain wallets: 1. Bitcoin Core 2. Ethereum 3. Electrum Also, is there any way that I can bring together the optimizations into one rather than three apps?

My understanding is that the current lightweight client syncs only the block headers (80 bytes) which prevents downloading of the entire blockchain. However, I'd wanna try further optimising this to make it sync even faster. lib/network.py lib/blockchain.py a good place to start looking Thanks for the good advice. I'm now trying to measure the time taken for blockchain_headers to be downloaded during the first sync. However I am unable to find the right place/code to insert into. Do you have any idea on how I can track the time so that I may further optimise it?

Hi, is there any help from anyone regarding my previous message?

May I enquire on where I can start with if I want to further optimize Electrum's lightweight performance?

Oh thank you so much! I'll look into it!

Then may I ask on where is the Proof-of-Work functionality that I can look into?

on: October 28, 2017, 04:50:09 PM

Hi, I will like to learn in-depth on Electrum's functionalities from the source codes but there isn't much commenting in the .py files. Will mainly be interested to know: 1. The main .py file to start looking into 2. The functions and a brief description about them 3. How these functions relate to one another Your help is much appreciated!
