Bitcoin Simulation Bros

A lightweight and interactive web-based Bitcoin blockchain simulation. This project demonstrates the core mechanics of blockchain mining, transaction processing, and hash calculation in a fun and educational way.

🌟 Features

• Real-time Blockchain Mining: Simulate the mining process with adjustable difficulty levels.
• Transaction Processing: Add and verify transactions in a block.
• Dynamic Nonce Adjustment: Visualize how the nonce changes to meet the block difficulty.
• Hashing Demonstration: Observe the SHA-256 hash generation in real-time.
• Responsive UI: Built with modern web technologies for seamless interaction.

📦 Technologies Used

• Rust: High-performance systems programming language.
• Leptos: Reactive front-end framework for Rust.
• SHA-256: Secure hashing algorithm for block and transaction validation.

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Install Rust
• Install cargo-leptos:

  cargo install cargo-leptos

---

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/bitcoin-simulation-bros.git
   cd bitcoin-simulation-bros

2. Build and run the project:

   cargo leptos watch

3. Open your browser and navigate to:

   http://localhost:8080
   

🤯 Start Project with WASM

npx tailwindcss -i ./input.css -o ./tailwind.css --watch

trunk serve --open

⚒️ WASM Production Build

trunk build --release

🤯 Usage

1. Adjust Difficulty: Set the difficulty level for mining by changing the DIFFICULTY constant in the code.
2. Mine a Block: Click the "Let's Mining" button to start mining.
3. View Real-Time Updates: Watch the nonce and hash update dynamically as the block is mined.
4. Explore Transactions: Add custom transactions and observe their impact on the block’s hash.
