bitcore guesses the network from the address version in several places in its code. They don't want to change that. Perhaps it wasn't the wisest approach for them to use. I thought it might be simple to change the address version since its still relatively new and it isn't a real network. Would it be too much work to change?On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 12:30 AM, Mike Hearn <mike@plan99.net> wrote:Yes, bitcoinj supports and uses regtest mode. It would also have to be changed.You didn't provide a rationale for this. What's the cost of having them be the same?On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 11:45 AM, Warren Togami Jr. <wtogami@gmail.com> wrote:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hi folks,I propose changing all of the address versions in -regtest mode to be unique so they are no longer identical to testnet.For example, regtest pubkey hash addresses could begin with r or R.We need to know if any existing tools would need to be modified to support this change to regtest. Do existing tools outside of pull tester expect regtest to have testnet addresses? If the quantity of tools that currently handle regtest is small then we can modify them to the new address versions.Warren Togami
