@zeppelin do you still plan to work on validation for new bitcoincash addresses?

ognus avatar Apr 10 '18 05:04 ognus

yes. i validate old address and new address both use it.

tomochandv avatar Apr 10 '18 09:04 tomochandv

@ognus Yes, but with some delay. Something urgent came up on my project, had to allocate my resources elsewhere. Hopefully I can resume work next week!

@zeppelin Sounds great and thank you for letting me know. Good luck with your project :)

ognus avatar Apr 10 '18 11:04 ognus

Thank you so much. I'll be waiting.

hello, sorry for bothering you, is this resolved?

@nicman23 it is not

ognus avatar May 09 '18 06:05 ognus

@nicman23 @ognus Unfortunately I didn't have any time to work on this. I suggest you either roll back the feature than have it incomplete. Also can't tell an ETA because I've very tight deadlines in the coming weeks, so I can't work OSS at all at the moment... :(

I'll definitely need this in the future, it's just more urgent things came in front.

do you accept bounties?

nicman23 avatar May 09 '18 18:05 nicman23

@zeppelin Thank you for the update! I will try to do some research on the new BCH addresses format and hopefully finish you work. If you have any links handy in relation to the new addresses, feel free to let me know :) Either way, thank you.

@nicman23 what do you mean? Accepting money through something like https://www.bountysource.com/? To be honest I never thought about it.

ognus avatar May 10 '18 11:05 ognus

yes something like that

In case anyone finds this helpful:

Is there an official CashAddr specification for developers?

Yes, here.

source: CashAddr Addresses Are Here

Unfortunately BCH has 3 types of addresses: legacy, bitpay, cash

We could add this library as a dependency? https://github.com/bitcoincashjs/cashaddrjs
