UML Diagram for Bitcoin System

[velhoti]

Is there some UML documentation for Bitcoin system, or part of it?

I believe it could be interesting for development purposes, especially for beginners like me.

I've note that this documentaiton would be usefull after read this correlated topic:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4387678.0
but seems they are more interested in vizualization, not formal documentation (except for flow diagram).

The closest I've seen are these :

This one is for btcj library rather.

You can join the facebook Blockchain developers group, I remember seeing a stylized UML diagram there.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/155609678347636/

I don't remember exactly who did it or how long it was, might as well join and ask.

Clearly it's not Bitcoin diagram, the concept of user/account, offer service, request transaction & many more isn't exist, at least on protocol level.
Looks like it's diagram for bitcoin services or marketplace, even though real one should be more complex IMO.

You are right about that. Its not. Its as close to an UML class diagram that I found.

There's this other one that I found here, take a look if its of any use to you guys.

The only other instance that I recall is, like I said, comes from that Blockchain development group on facebook.

Good finding

The diagram looks good, even though i'm not sure what they meant by "Bitcoin SW" (clearly it's not SegWit since the paper was written on 2015) & "Real" data type.
Few details obviously are missing, but it's not problem since such detail should be shown on separate diagram.

Yeah, a legend would have been nice.
I think it could be switch but I am not sure. Oddly enough there is no mention of 'SW' in the entire pdf.

According to https://cdecker.github.io/btcresearch/2015/roth2015.html it isn't even peer-reviewed. Could be a UNI project that was published without much checks and forgotten about.

Seem reliable.

Thanks for some of the documentation posted but unfortunately, apparently there is no documentation embracing the system that can be used as guide to navigate and develop on the system, as was my initial intent. Just few pieces of representation with reliabilit not guaranteed.
