Nix packages and nixos modules with profiles for easily installing Bitcoin nodes and higher layer protocols.
This is a work in progress - don't expect it to be bug free or secure.
The 'full' profile right now sets up a Bitcoin Core node and c-lightning, accessable with a smartphone using spark-wallet.
A simple webpage shows the lightning nodeid and links to nanopos allowing to receive donations.
It also includes liquid-daemon.
A demo installation is running at http://6tr4dg3f2oa7slotdjp4syvnzzcry2lqqlcvqkfxdavxo6jsuxwqpxad.onion.
The goal is too make it easy to deploy a reasonably secure Bitcoin node with a usable wallet.
It should allow managing bitcoin (the currency) effectively and providing public infrastructure.
It should be a reproducible and extensible platform applications building on Bitcoin.
