🌸 NAME 🌸

groestlcoin-util — literally the manual page for groestlcoin-util v29.0.0, no cap 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

groestlcoin-util [options] [command]
groestlcoin-util [options] grind <hex-block-header>

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So groestlcoin-util is the Groestlcoin Core groestlcoin-util utility, version v29.0.0 💅

Here's the whole vibe: the groestlcoin-util tool hands you groestlcoin-related functionality that does not rely on the ability to access a running node. Read that again — no node needed, she's independent, main character energy 👑

The available [commands] are listed below, and yes we get to them, patience bb 🎀

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -help — prints this help message and exits (you can also shout -h or -? if that's more your thing) 💖
• -version — prints the version and exits. short and iconic ⭐

🧚 Debugging/Testing options:

okay so this heading is literally in the original and there is nothing listed under it 🙈 no flags, no values, nothing — so there's nothing for me to tell you, and I'm not about to invent any 🫶

🌈 Chain selection options:

• -chain=<chain> — use the chain <chain> (default: main). The allowed values are main, test, testnet4, signet, regtest 🦋
• -signet — use the signet chain, it's the equivalent of -chain=signet. Heads up though: the network is defined by the -signetchallenge parameter 💜
• -signetchallenge — blocks must satisfy the given script to be considered valid. This is only for signet networks, and it defaults to the global default signet test network challenge 🎀
• -signetseednode — specify a seed node for the signet network, in the hostname[:port] format, e.g. sig.net:1234. You can use this multiple times to specify multiple seed nodes, and it defaults to the global default signet test network seed node(s) 🌸
• -testnet — use the testnet3 chain, equivalent of -chain=test.

⚠️ bestie listen — support for testnet3 is deprecated and will be removed in an upcoming release. Consider moving to testnet4 now by using -testnet4. like, actually consider it 💀

• -testnet4 — use the testnet4 chain, equivalent of -chain=testnet4. slay 🔥

⭐ Commands:

• grind — perform proof of work on the hex header string 🔨✨
