7 # Run on the test network instead of the real bitcoin network.
10 # Run a regression test network
13 # Connect via a SOCKS5 proxy
16 # Bind to given address and always listen on it. Use [host]:port notation for IPv6

23 ## Quick Primer on addnode vs connect ##
24 ## Let's say for instance you use addnode=4.2.2.4 ##
25 ## addnode will connect you to and tell you about the ##
26 ## nodes connected to 4.2.2.4. In addition it will tell ##
27 ## the other nodes connected to it that you exist so ##
28 ## they can connect to you. ##
29 ## connect will not do the above when you 'connect' to it. ##
30 ## It will *only* connect you to 4.2.2.4 and no one else.##
32 ## So if you're behind a firewall, or have other problems ##
33 ## finding nodes, add some using 'addnode'. ##
35 ## If you want to stay private, use 'connect' to only ##
36 ## connect to "trusted" nodes. ##
38 ## If you run multiple nodes on a LAN, there's no need for ##
39 ## all of them to open lots of connections. Instead ##
40 ## 'connect' them all to one node that is port forwarded ##
41 ## and has lots of connections. ##
42 ## Thanks goes to [Noodle] on Freenode. ##

45 # Use as many addnode= settings as you like to connect to specific peers
46 #addnode=69.164.218.197
47 #addnode=10.0.0.2:8333
49 # Alternatively use as many connect= settings as you like to connect ONLY to specific peers
50 #connect=69.164.218.197
51 #connect=10.0.0.1:8333
53 # Listening mode, enabled by default except when 'connect' is being used
56 # Maximum number of inbound+outbound connections.
60 # JSON-RPC options (for controlling a running Bitcoin/bitcoind process)
63 # server=1 tells Bitcoin-Qt and bitcoind to accept JSON-RPC commands
66 # Bind to given address to listen for JSON-RPC connections. Use [host]:port notation for IPv6.
67 # This option can be specified multiple times (default: bind to all interfaces)
70 # If no rpcpassword is set, rpc cookie auth is sought. The default `-rpccookiefile` name
71 # is .cookie and found in the `-datadir` being used for bitcoind. This option is typically used
72 # when the server and client are run as the same user.
74 # If not, you must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api. The first
75 # method(DEPRECATED) is to set this pair for the server and client:
77 #rpcpassword=YourSuperGreatPasswordNumber_DO_NOT_USE_THIS_OR_YOU_WILL_GET_ROBBED_385593
79 # The second method `rpcauth` can be added to server startup argument. It is set at intialization time
80 # using the output from the script in share/rpcuser/rpcuser.py after providing a username:
82 # ./share/rpcuser/rpcuser.py alice
83 # String to be appended to bitcoin.conf:
84 # rpcauth=alice:f7efda5c189b999524f151318c0c86$d5b51b3beffbc02b724e5d095828e0bc8b2456e9ac8757ae3211a5d9b16a22ae
86 # DONT_USE_THIS_YOU_WILL_GET_ROBBED_8ak1gI25KFTvjovL3gAM967mies3E=
88 # On client-side, you add the normal user/password pair to send commands:
90 #rpcpassword=DONT_USE_THIS_YOU_WILL_GET_ROBBED_8ak1gI25KFTvjovL3gAM967mies3E=
92 # You can even add multiple entries of these to the server conf file, and client can use any of them:
93 # rpcauth=bob:b2dd077cb54591a2f3139e69a897ac$4e71f08d48b4347cf8eff3815c0e25ae2e9a4340474079f55705f40574f4ec99
95 # How many seconds bitcoin will wait for a complete RPC HTTP request.
96 # after the HTTP connection is established.
99 # By default, only RPC connections from localhost are allowed.
100 # Specify as many rpcallowip= settings as you like to allow connections from other hosts,
101 # either as a single IPv4/IPv6 or with a subnet specification.
103 # NOTE: opening up the RPC port to hosts outside your local trusted network is NOT RECOMMENDED,
104 # because the rpcpassword is transmitted over the network unencrypted.
106 # server=1 tells Bitcoin-Qt to accept JSON-RPC commands.
107 # it is also read by bitcoind to determine if RPC should be enabled
108 #rpcallowip=10.1.1.34/255.255.255.0
109 #rpcallowip=1.2.3.4/24
110 #rpcallowip=2001:db8:85a3:0:0:8a2e:370:7334/96
112 # Listen for RPC connections on this TCP port:
115 # You can use Bitcoin or bitcoind to send commands to Bitcoin/bitcoind
116 # running on another host using this option:
117 #rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
119 # Create transactions that have enough fees so they are likely to begin confirmation within n blocks (default: 6).
120 # This setting is over-ridden by the -paytxfee option.
123 # Miscellaneous options
125 # Pre-generate this many public/private key pairs, so wallet backups will be valid for
126 # both prior transactions and several dozen future transactions.
129 # Pay an optional transaction fee every time you send bitcoins. Transactions with fees
130 # are more likely than free transactions to be included in generated blocks, so may
131 # be validated sooner.
134 # Enable pruning to reduce storage requirements by deleting old blocks.
135 # This mode is incompatible with -txindex and -rescan.
136 # 0 = default (no pruning).
137 # 1 = allows manual pruning via RPC.
138 # >=550 = target to stay under in MiB.
141 # User interface options
143 # Start Bitcoin minimized
146 # Minimize to the system tray
