Let’s get some eyeballs on this GitHub: BTC Mesh Demo
“The purpose of this repo is to demo a library that transmits bitcoin objects (addresses, raw_trx, psbt, etc) over a mesh network.
This project leverages:
The bdk-python bindings for Bitcoin wallet and transaction functionalities. More information can be found here: bdk-python.
The Meshtastic Python API for transmitting data over mesh networks. Documentation and details are available at Meshtastic Python API.
Setup
This example assumes there are three meshtastic devices (Alice, Bob and Charlie) sending around PSBTs. I used two different LILYGO T-Beams and a T-echo. You can adapt the demo to work with fewer or more devices as needed.”
