Idea

Bitcoin-Blu is an altcoin based on the same source-code (v28.2) as Bitcoin.

The main goal of Bitcoin-Blu is the same as the goal of the original Bitcoin. "Bitcoin-Blu (BBLU) enables individuals to transact securely and freely, without relying on banks or trusted intermediaries, through a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital cash system."

While Bitcoin (BTC) has become expensive to use, with very high mining difficulty and relatively low rewards for finding new blocks, Bitcoin-Blu (BBLU) offers a more accessible alternative. Its design could allow lower transaction costs, fairer mining opportunities, and greater participation across a wider community. Bitcoin-Blu could innovate, compete, and provide alternatives without altering BTC, but it would need time, adoption, and trust to become meaningful. It could also increase the overall robustness of decentralized money: if one chain suffers a major attack, users could switch to the other — a form of systemic redundancy.

Development

🚧 The Bitcoin-Blu network needs help with development!

🐛 Open Issues

  • currently only main network is started, we must configure test, reg, and signet
  • we should update the translations
  • the testcases are mostly broken, we need to fix them
  • there are a lot of places in the UI where we have to replace the label "bitcoin" with "bitcoin-blu"

Roadmap

on the infrastructure page, we list achieved topics and open ideas.

  • implement mobile wallet
  • register on mining pool finder
  • implement a DNS Seed Server
  • implement a hardware-wallet for the BBLU coin
