• Current block information: hash, height, fees, timestamp, age, diff, ...
• Basic block explorer with fast seeking, no external DB required
• Basic transaction viewer with fast seeking, best with -txindex=1
• Ability to query blocks by hash, height; transactions by txid
• Wallet transaction and balance viewer
• Charting network monitor
• Peer/connection information
• Basic debug console functionality

git clone https://github.com/esotericnonsense/bitcoind-ncurses2

pip3 install -r bitcoind-ncurses2/requirements.txt

or, on Arch Linux:

pacman -S python-aiohttp python-async-timeout

cd bitcoind-ncurses2
python3 main.py

bitcoind-ncurses2 will automatically use the cookie file available in ~/.bitcoin/, or the RPC settings in ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf. To use a different datadir, specify the --datadir flag:

python3 main.py --datadir /some/path/to/your/datadir

This is an early development release and a complete rewrite of the original bitcoind-ncurses. Expect the unexpected.

Please report any problems using the Github issue tracker. Pull requests are also welcomed. The author, esotericnonsense, can often be found milling around on #bitcoin (Freenode).
