btclib-wallet

From a seed to a signed, broadcast bitcoin transaction, on top of the btclib library.

btclib is the protocol: the encodings other than Base58Check and bech32, the scripts, the transactions and the signature schemes, what a node consumes.

It depends on btclib and on bitcoin-core-rpc, and re-exports nothing of btclib’s: a name btclib defines is imported from btclib.

It is fully annotated and ships py.typed, and the test suite answers to vectors their authors publish: the BIPs’ and the SLIPs’ own, HWI’s, and trezor’s for BIP39 and SLIP39. tests/_data/README.md pins each vendored file to the upstream commit it was copied from, and says whether the two still match.
