Hello all;

Was able to setup bitcoind in a local test mode (regtest) to explore the bitcoin json-rpc protocol. Starting bitcoind also creates/manages the wallet.dat. Is it possible to setup/create/manage the wallet.dat on another node (remote) and setup bitcoind as just a json-rpc proxy to send/receive bitcoin requests ?

Thanks in advance

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

Thanks for the response ... just want to clarify - dont want to share the wallet.dat ... want bitcond just to be a rpc server while have the wallet on another node

Ah, see the -disablewallet option for bitcoind ... that will disable the wallet and allow bitcoind to be a proxy for all rpc requests as desired ... the only question then have is how do we run a client that has just the wallet management capability and proxies requests via bitcoind
