======================
Detects which cryptcoin is the given cryptocoin address (starts with some coins listed in CoinWarz.com that have working block explorers)
This isn't by any means accurate, it's a quick & dirty check, you have to resolve any conflicts by yourself.
Coins supported out-of-the-box:
* Bitcoin
* Noirbits
* Terracoin
* Krugercoin
* Bottlecaps
* Fastcoin
* Digital Coin
* BBQCoin
* Bitbar
* Novacoin
* Litecoin
* Worldcoin
* Feathercoin
* Franko
* Mincoin
* Stablecoin
* Megacoin
* PPCoin
* Hypercoin
* Freicoin
* Alphacoin
* Namecoin
* Ixcoin
* Devcoin
* Primecoin
The addresses are checked using base58Check native module (currently doesn't work on Windows, so it's shim'ed)
# Usage
```js
var dcc = require('detect-cryptocoin');
var detected = dcc([
'1PskTzQjmzqB2boz67AXsv4C5YNWN4xmhu',
'LW2kXiquqDu3GfpfBX2xNTSgjVmBPu6g3z',
'PNKZEkDf9eBSNebu2CcxHaGuma6wHuZEBh',
'ARKZ7uVE1YS19HC8jSq5xZGkr6YAzugWBv'
], ['BTC','LTC','PPC','XPM']);
// You may narrow the function results by passing only the allowed/expected list as the second parameter.
// everything that isn't in this list is ignored
console.log(detected);
// yields:
{
'BTC': ['1PskTzQjmzqB2boz67AXsv4C5YNWN4xmhu'],
'LTC': ['LW2kXiquqDu3GfpfBX2xNTSgjVmBPu6g3z'],
'PPC': ['PNKZEkDf9eBSNebu2CcxHaGuma6wHuZEBh'],
'XPM': ['ARKZ7uVE1YS19HC8jSq5xZGkr6YAzugWBv'],
'conflicts': {},
'invalids': []
}
// add more coins using:
dcc.coins.HKK = {
name: 'HongKongKoin',
starts: ['h']
};
// you may do an easy and fast check, using, [COIN SYMBOL].cryptocoinexplorer.com/q/checkaddress/[ADDRESS] for example
// If there's a conflict, you must check with your coin daemon if these addresses exists there, or using an API.
// They are valid, but they match multiple coins.
// Check the 'conflicts' member for conflicts:
{
'LTC': ['LW2kXiquqDu3GfpfBX2xNTSgjVmBPu6g3z'],
'PPC': ['PNKZEkDf9eBSNebu2CcxHaGuma6wHuZEBh'],
'XPM': ['ARKZ7uVE1YS19HC8jSq5xZGkr6YAzugWBv'],

'TRC': ['1PskTzQjmzqB2boz67AXsv4C5YNWN4xmhu']
}
},
'invalids': []
}
// If there are any invalids, they will go in 'invalids' member array
// You may overwrite the original detect.isValid function with your own
// so you may do your online / daemon check by yourself, it receives 3 arguments:
// address, detected
dcc.isValid = function(address, detected, list){
// you can access dcc.index that is the built index from the available coins
// detected is an array of possible coins
// the current list of allowed/expected coins
// return a boolean
return true;
};
// be a good citizen, just make sure to backup the original function :)
