Bitcore Node
============

A Bitcoin full node for building applications and services with Node.js. A node is extensible and can be configured to run additional services. At the minimum a node has an interface to [Bitcoin Core with additional indexing](https://github.com/bitpay/bitcoin/tree/0.12-bitcore) for more advanced address queries. Additional services can be enabled to make a node more useful such as exposing new APIs, running a block explorer and wallet service.

# Bitcoin Service

The Bitcoin Service is a Node.js interface to [Bitcoin Core](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin) for querying information about the bitcoin block chain. It will manage starting and stopping `bitcoind` or connect to several running `bitcoind` processes. It uses a branch of a [branch of Bitcoin Core](https://github.com/bitpay/bitcoin/tree/0.12-bitcore) with additional indexes for querying information about addresses and blocks. Results are cached for performance and there are several additional API methods added for common queries.
