Thanks for the feedback! I added the setup details like Bitcoin Core version and Python info to the first post, just for clarity.

Now, let’s get into some details. One main difference between regtest and testnet/mainnet is the lack of a nice block explorer. But you might still need to check stuff on regtest. So, I wrote another Python script to…

If you’ve been following along, you should have a fully functional regtest environment now. Time to have some fun and create a raw transaction, sign it, and send it all from a Python script. Let’s get coding!

Alright, moving on to part two. Here we’re gonna set up the environment for transactions. Sure, you can stick with bitcoin-cli commands, but I’m thinking you want to get into some Python code to really get the hang of…

I see a lot of questions about where to get test bitcoins for testing stuff. People often suggest using regtest instead of the testnet, but honestly, it’s not always clear what regtest really is or how to get it going.…
