Bitcoin ABC is the reference full-node software implementation for the eCash (XEC) cryptocurrency, forked from Bitcoin Core. It enables peer-to-peer digital cash by validating transactions and blocks, and includes wallet, mining, and RPC infrastructure.
Use cases
- run an eCash full node
- validate XEC blockchain transactions
- operate a wallet for eCash payments
- send and receive peer-to-peer digital cash
- develop applications on top of the eCash network
- mine or relay eCash blocks
When to choose
- you need to run a full validating node for the eCash (XEC) network
- you want the reference implementation maintained by the eCash project
- you need node infrastructure with wallet and RPC support for eCash
When to avoid
- you want to run a Bitcoin (BTC) or Bitcoin Cash (BCH) node - use Bitcoin Core or BCH node software instead
- you need a lightweight SPV wallet rather than a full node
- you want a custodial or exchange-style crypto platform
