This project’s rule: never rebuild what already has a good base somewhere on the web. Everything we reuse, where it comes from, and under what terms — full transparency.
| Piece | Origin | License / terms |
|---|---|---|
| On-chain address data (explorer app, landings, audit) | mempool.space API · blockstream.info Esplora API · blockchain.info bulk API | public APIs rate-limited, cached client-side |
| RIPEMD-160 (address derivation in the browser) | standard algorithm (Bosselaers et al., 1996), our compact JS implementation — verified against OpenSSL/rhash and 5 reference vectors | public domain algorithm |
| base58 / BDB wallet format knowledge | Bitcoin Core documentation & source; Berkeley DB on-disk format | MIT / docs |
| Forensic parser | written for this project (Python + JS port, cross-verified 104/104) | MIT tools/wallet_forensic.py |
| “John the Ripper 1.9.0” bundled inside the packs | documented as seller evidence only — we do not distribute or use it | evidence |
| Seller material (hint files, bait lists, READMEs) | copied verbatim as documentary evidence; authorship belongs to the packs’ authors | evidence data/seller_evidence/ |
| Design inspiration | Bitcoin Core Qt interface (parody/homage as narrative device; not affiliated) | fair use |
Every figure shown in the app comes from files in the repository — nothing is hand-typed:
If anything here misattributes your work or you’d like a piece handled differently, open an issue on GitHub and it will be fixed. This is a fraud-documentation project; good citizenship toward the tools we build on is part of the point.
