Trezor UTXO library (@trezor/utxo-lib)

NPM

Javascript Bitcoin and Bitcoin-like altcoins library for node.js and browsers.

This library is a fork of the bitcoinjs-lib and it is profiled to work with Trezor environment.

Not all the modules/methods from the upstream are present here (like ecpair, psbt...) since we didn't use them for now, however they might be easily added in the future.

You probably don't want to use this package directly. Try one of the alternatives instead:

Main differences

Differences are explicitly described in each file.

  • Transaction class is extended by each custom altcoin implementation.
  • Transaction class is parsing amounts as strings.
  • address module uses different encoding for Decred and handles Bitcoin Cash addresses.
  • added coinselect and compose modules (origin source: https://github.com/trezor/hd-wallet/tree/master/src/build-tx)
  • removed unused modules: block, classify, ecpair, psbt.
