Project description

BlockSimPy

CI Python PyPI version License

A discrete event simulator for blockchain networks that models mining competition, block propagation, difficulty adjustment, and economic incentives. The simulator enables controlled experimentation with blockchain protocols without operating live cryptocurrency nodes. Configurations for Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, and Dogecoin are provided.

Installation

pip install blocksimpy

Quick Start

Run a Bitcoin simulation for 100 blocks:

blocksimpy --chain btc --blocks 100

or

bsim --chain btc --blocks 100

Run a custom blockchain:

blocksimpy --blocktime 30 --blocks 50 --miners 5

See all options:

blocksimpy --help

Testing

Validate the simulator works correctly:

python tests/test_validation.py

This runs simulations for Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, and Bitcoin Cash, validating that metrics match expected values.
