Subject: Re: [Bitcoin-development] HTTP REST API for bitcoind
Precedence: list

Hi Andreas / Jeff,

Access to the UTXO set can be done using libcoin (see the coinexplorer =
example), which also has a rest interface. Access to the UTXO set pr =
address/script requires indexing of all scripts, which was easy in =
libcoin as the blockchain is stored in a sqlite database. Integrating =
this in bitcoind would require setting up and maintaining such an index =
ad hoc.

Michael
