Module digibyte::blockdata::constants[][src]

Blockdata constants

This module provides various constants relating to the blockchain and consensus code. In particular, it defines the genesis block and its single transaction

Constants

COIN_VALUE

How many satoshis are in “one bitcoin”

DIFFCHANGE_INTERVAL

How many blocks between diffchanges

DIFFCHANGE_TIMESPAN

How much time on average should occur between diffchanges

MAX_BLOCK_WEIGHT

The maximum allowed weight for a block, see BIP 141 (network rule)

MAX_SEQUENCE

The maximum allowable sequence number

MIN_TRANSACTION_WEIGHT

The minimum transaction weight for a valid serialized transaction

TARGET_BLOCK_SPACING

How many seconds between blocks we expect on average

WITNESS_SCALE_FACTOR

The factor that non-witness serialization data is multiplied by during weight calculation

Functions

genesis_block

Constructs and returns the genesis block

max_money

The maximum value allowed in an output (useful for sanity checking, since keeping everything below this value should prevent overflows if you are doing anything remotely sane with monetary values).

max_target

In Bitcoind this is insanely described as ~((u256)0 >> 32)
