Reference client for Bitmessage: a P2P encrypted decentralised communication protocol
https://bitmesage.org
* Added message_parsers.py to separate parsing from protocol logic. * Implemented addr parsing. * Refactored receiveDataThread.recaddr. * Added packNetworkAddress and unpackNetworkAddress in shared.py to put IPV6 address handling in one place. * Have [,un]packNetworkAddress use inet_pton and inet_ntop. * Convert some print statements to logger messages. |

PyBitmessage
Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.
