Bitcoin Core

DeFiChain is a fork on Bitcoin Core from commit 7d6f63c – which is slightly after v0.18.1 of Bitcoin Core.

DeFiChain has done significant modifications from Bitcoin Core, for instance:

  • Moving from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake
  • Masternode model
  • Community fund support
  • Bitcoin blockchain block anchoring
  • Increased decentralized financial transaction and opcode support, etc.
  • Configuration defaults (mainnet ports: 8555/4, testnet ports: 18555/4, changi ports: 20554/4, devnet ports: 21554/4, regnet ports: 19555/4 etc)

Merges from upstream (Bitcoin Core) will be done selectively if it applies to the improved functionality and security of DeFiChain.
