# GODcoin

GODcoin is the official currency of Christ. A single token is backed by one
physical gram of gold. Blockchain technology is used to provide an immutable and
cryptographically verified ledger. The system is centralized allowing for global
scalability that would otherwise be foregone in a decentralized system.

## Overview

GODcoin's core library and blockchain implementation.

The library API provides:

- Building transactions
- Building network messages
- Creating scripts and converting them to P2SH addresses used for receiving
- Generating keys and optionally converting them to a default P2SH address
- Backend storage for blocks and indexing
- Validating blocks and transactions

This library does not provide a network client implementation remaining agnostic
to any networking library.

## Supported Rust Versions

GODcoin is built against the latest stable version of the compiler. Any previous
versions are not guaranteed to compile.

## Developing

When bugs are fixed, regression tests should be added. New features likewise
should have corresponding tests added to ensure correct behavior.

Run the test suite:
```
$ cargo test
```

The crate should build and tests should pass.
