[bitcoin-dev] bitcoin-java, a new bitcoin library

[Steve Myers]

Ciao Humberto! building a new library is a great way to learn about bitcoin, you should also take a look at the Bitcoin Dev Kit project (https://github.com/bitcoindevkit) where we're building support for Kotlin/Java (and Android) and eventually Swift and iOS. You don't need to know Rust (though it's a great language to learn! ) and we'd love to have new folks join us as we develop the language bindings which is also a great way to learn the primitives for on-chain Bitcoin.

I don't intend to include features that allow communication with nodes nor any online features in it. I think it is ideal for developers that want to build a wallet in Java.
