A simple bitmessage client implementation written in c++
It compile on windows using visual studio, but i think it can be easily ported to linux by changing the windows socket.
It uses crypto++ for cryptography so i included it.
At this stage it can:
- Read/send messages.
- Read/send pubkeys.
- Save/load private addresses.
- Save/load blocks.
- Generate random addresses.
- Generate deterministic addresses.
- Connect to nodes.
- Accept all the packets type.
- Decrypt/encrypt and sign everything
- Calculate pow.
- It does propagate inventory elements
- There is a random delay when propagating inv different from node to node (0.1 to 2.1 sec) this should prevent some minor attacks
But it cannot:
- Read/Send broadcast.
- use a different elliptic curve different from 0x02CA (714).
- It doesn't read/decrypt the messages already in the invenctory.
- Can handle only v4 address and pubkey
- It doesn't use ack at all
