Hey,

I`m aiming to create some Bitcoin-related applications as a part of my master thesis. I was looking for some protocol specifications or other programming guidelines for awhile now and can't find much. Does anyone have any materials useful for programming a wallet from scratch, or is my best bet to just go through the official source code and try to convert it over to what I need?

Thanks for any feedback.

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)
