21: Build the Machine-Payable Web Build Status

21 logo

21 is an open source Python library and command line interface for quickly building machine-payable web services. It allows you to accomplish three major tasks:

  • Get bitcoin on any device
  • Add bitcoin micropayments to any Django or Flask app
  • Earn bitcoin on every HTTP request

The package includes:

  • an HD wallet to securely manage your bitcoin
  • crypto and bitcoin libraries to build bitcoin/blockchain applications
  • a micropayment-channels client and server
  • commands for mining, buying, and earning bitcoin, as well as requesting it from the 21 faucet
  • tools for publishing machine-payable endpoints to the 21 Marketplace
  • containers that allow your machine to sell machine resources for bitcoin

and much more.

Security

Please note that the 21 software is in beta. To protect the security of your systems while using 21, we highly recommend you install the software on a device other than your main laptop (e.g. 21 Bitcoin Computer, an old laptop, or an Amazon Virtual Machine) while the product is still in beta. You can read more security-related information here. Please send an email to [email protected] regarding any issue concerning security.
