Package: bunkrwallet
Bunkr WalletBunkr Wallet is a simple bitcoin wallet application built on top of Bunkr. In utilizing Bunkr our wallet shifts the paradigm of cryptocurrency wallet security: private keys are distributedly stored in Bunkr and transaction signatures are securely generated without ever recomposing a bitcoin private key onanydevice. The wallet is a bare bones proof of concept with a simple cli.Disclaimer: This wallet is in beta and under development. Demo the wallet with testnet coins, and never publish generated transactions without decoding and looking them over first!Notes:Private keys are stored across a distributed set of machines as Bunkr secrets and never touch your local machine (after creation).In order to create a wallet or send funds from a wallet, the Bunkr Daemon must be running in the background.Bunkr Wallet isnotan HD (heirarchical deterministic) wallet as wallet addresses are in no way correlated or derived from a master seed. One can add more addresses to the wallet keyring at any time.A wallet stores all public wallet information in a simple json file. It stores addresses, public keys, and reference to Bunkr secrets (for communicating with the private key distributed across remote servers). While your private keys will still be safe and secure in your Bunkr, losing the wallet json file can make it a pain to recover the wallet.InstallationInstall Bunkr Wallet (and all underlying requirements) with:$ pip install bunkrwalletVerify installation with$ bunkr-wallet

Default to.BunkrWalletbunkr_addressis the socket address of the bunkr daemon. Defaults to/tmp/bunkr_daemon.sockbunkr_pathis the path to your local bunkr directory. Defaults to~/.bunkrcreate_wallet>>> w = bw.create_wallet("your-wallet-name")Creates a wallet instance and the fileyour-wallet-name.jsonin the BunkrWallet directory.Optional parametertestnetis a boolean flag for either bitcoin testnet or mainnet (defaults to False, i.e. mainnet)list_wallets>>> bw.list_wallets()
['your-wallet-name', 'your-other-wallet-name', ...]Lists all the wallet names in the BunkrWallet directory.get_wallet>>> w = bw.get_wallet("your-wallet-name")Gets Wallet instance with the name "your-wallet-name" from the BunkrWallet.Wallet class methodsshow_balance>>> w.show_balance()Prints the total balance of the wallet.show_fresh_address>>> w.show_fresh_address()Shows an unused address on the wallet keyring. Use this method to get an address for receiving bitcoin. If there are no fresh addresses left in the wallet it will raise an error (to overcome this error see add_addresses)send>>> w.send([{"address": <address 1>, "value": <satoshi amount to address 1}, ...], <fee amount>)Returns the signed transaction hex of a new bitcoin transaction. It is left to the user to publish the transaction.add_addresses>>> w.add_addresses(<number of addresses>)Adds an amount of addresses to the wallet keyring.
