Building a Hub that connects you to Bitcoin Cash
Bitcoin Cash is still a mysterious black box to most companies that would potentially want to use it, or build applications on top of.
Flowee is being built to help you connect to the Bitcoin Cash network and handle all the validation, parsing and low level database access for all your Bitcoin needs. Including many needs you didn't even know you had!
The codebase is derived from the one that originally was created by Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of Bitcoin. This way you know you won't get compatibility issues. Flowee is adjusted for greatly increased speed and reliability as well as for scaling up to much larger blocks than the competition.
The libs/httpengine directory is LGPL licensed as this is derived from the qhttpengine open source project.
The original Satoshi codebase was MIT licensed. This has been combined with copyrighted works from Tom Zander which are GPLv3 licensed with the result that those files are new licensed under the GPLv3.
