APIBTC - Current Status

Please Note: Currently, our publicly hosted API endpoint is available exclusively on the Bitcoin regtest network for development and testing purposes.

• API Documentation (Swagger): The regtest API documentation is available via Swagger here.
• Mainnet Environment: We do not provide a publicly hosted mainnet API endpoint. You can run your own mainnet instance using the provided Docker image.
• More Information: For further details about the project, Docker images, and setup instructions, please visit the main project website.

⚠️ Important: The public API operates on regtest. Do not send real Bitcoin (BTC) to any addresses generated or used via this public regtest endpoint.
