web3_universal_bitcoin 0.1.1

Bitcoin blockchain extension for Web3 Universal SDK. Supports P2PKH, P2SH, P2TR (Taproot) and PSBT.

dart_web3_bitcoin

A robust Bitcoin extension for the Dart Web3 SDK. Brings Bitcoin's UTXO-based architecture and advanced scripting capabilities to the unified Dart API.

🚀 Features

• UTXO Management: Advanced logic for coin selection and change address calculation.
• SegWit & Taproot: Support for modern Bitcoin address formats (Bech32/Bech32m).
• PSBT Support: Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions for multi-sig and air-gapped flows.
• Lightning Ready: (Planned) Primitives for Lightning Network payment channels.

Usage Flow

    participant U as User
    participant C as BtcClient
    participant S as UTXO Selector
    participant B as TxBuilder
    participant W as Wallet
    U->>C: sendBtc(to, amount)
    C->>S: fetch unspent outputs
    S-->>C: selected UTXOs
    C->>B: build PSBT
    B-->>C: unsigned PSBT
    C->>W: sign_psbt()
    W-->>C: signed TX
    C-->>U: Broadcasted Hash

📚 Technical Reference

Core Classes

Class	Responsibility
BtcClient	High-level client for interacting with Bitcoin nodes or explorers.
Utxo	Represents an individual unspent transaction output.
Psbt	The standard format for sharing unsigned/partially signed data.
BtcAddress	Comprehensive support for all Bitcoin address prefixes.

🛡️ Security Considerations

• Fee Sniper Protection: Use RBF (Replace-By-Fee) settings cautiously; the SDK enables RBF by default for flexibility.
• Change Address Leakage: Always use a new change address for every transaction to maintain user privacy (BIP-44 compliance).
• Dust Limit: Ensure your outputs are above the network dust limit (e.g., 546 satoshis) to prevent transaction rejection.

💻 Usage

Building a SegWit Transaction

import 'package:dart_web3_bitcoin/dart_web3_bitcoin.dart';

void main() async {
  final btc = BtcClient();
  final wallet = BtcWallet.fromMnemonic('...', type: AddressType.p2wpkh);

  final tx = await btc.buildTransaction(
    to: 'bc1q...',
    amount: 100000, // 0.001 BTC
    feeRate: 25,    // sats/vbyte
    signer: wallet,
  );
  
  print('Bitcoin Tx Hash: $tx');
}
