Firebolt Electrum Mini Tutorial

Prerequisites

Before running the Firebolt Electrum software, ensure you have the following:

  • Python installed on your system. You can download it from the official website.
  • Electrum set up in developer mode.
  • A Testnet, Signet or Mainnet

Setting Up Firebolt Electrum

  1. Clone the Repository

    First, clone the Firebolt-Electrum repository from GitHub to your local machine:

    git clone https://github.com/AreaLayer/firebolt-electrum.git
cd firebolt-electrum

  2. Install Dependencies

    Navigate to the project directory and install the necessary dependencies. Ensure you are using Python 3.7 or higher.

    python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows, use `venv\Scripts\activate`
pip install -r requirements.txt

  3. Configure Electrum

    Ensure Electrum is set to developer mode. This can typically be done by running Electrum with the --dev flag.

    electrum --dev

  4. Run Firebolt-Electrum

    To start the firebolt-electrum application, use the provided script:

    ./run_electrum

Additional Configuration

  • Testnet/Signet Compatibility: Ensure you are running Electrum on Testnet or Signet for testing. You can switch to Testnet or Signet by adding the --testnet or --signet flag when starting Electrum:

    electrum --testnet

    or

    electrum --signet

  • Developer Mode: Make sure you are running Electrum in developer mode to enable all the necessary features for development and testing.

Verifying the Installation

After following the steps above, you should have Firebolt-Electrum up and running. You can verify the installation by checking the application output or by connecting to the Electrum console.

If you encounter any issues or need further assistance, refer to the Firebolt-Electrum GitHub repository for more detailed instructions and troubleshooting tips.

Contributing to Firebolt Electrum

If you wish to contribute to the project, follow these steps:

  1. Fork the repository on GitHub.

  2. Create a new branch for your feature or bugfix:

    git checkout -b my-new-feature

  3. Make your changes and commit them:

    git commit -am 'Add new feature'

  4. Push your branch to GitHub:

    git push origin my-new-feature

  5. Create a pull request on GitHub, describing your changes in detail.

By following this mini-tutorial, you should be able to set up and run the Firebolt-Electrum project with ease. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!

About Post Quantum Computing Resistence Coinjoin

Post-quantum computing resistance is a critical aspect of modern cryptography. It refers to the ability of cryptographic algorithms and protocols to withstand potential attacks from quantum computers. Quantum computers, with their ability to perform complex computations exponentially faster than classical computers, pose a significant threat to the security of traditional cryptographic systems.

Coinjoin is a cryptographic technique used in the Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to enhance privacy and anonymity. It involves combining multiple transactions into a single transaction, making it difficult for third parties to trace the origin of funds.

Coinjoin Post Quantum Computing Resistance refers to the ability of coinjoin transactions to resist attacks from quantum computers. This is achieved through the use of post-quantum cryptographic algorithms and protocols that are resistant to quantum computing attacks.
