## About

Ghorbu wallet is a hierarchical deterministic Bitcoin wallet for the desktop.

It implements [BIP-39](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0039) (generating the mnemonic and converting it into a binary seed),

[BIP-32](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0032) (deriving a tree of keypairs from a the seed and build a wallet structure), and

[BIP-44](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0044) (defining a logical hierarchy for deterministic wallets).  

For the coin selection process, it uses the Random-Improve algorithm as specified in [CIP-2](https://cips.cardano.org/cips/cip2/).  

The wallet uses the [mempool.space REST API](https://mempool.space/docs/api/rest).  

The app is built using [Tauri](https://tauri.app/). The backend is written in Rust and the frontend is built with [Svelte](https://svelte.dev/).
