Hi!

OpenBSD runs BitcoinD well.

Previously there's been a "net/bitcoin" port, discussed at http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&r=2&s=bitcoin&q=b&w=4 and https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&m=138471129220805&w=2 (whole thread not sure how to get the link).

Then that port disappeared, and it.. moved? reappeared? in openbsd-wip , which currently contains version 0.9.1 which is extremely old: https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/tree/master/net/bitcoin .


What happened to the port?

Now - previously I upgraded the port to 0.11 or so locally. I'd be the happiest to upgrade it to the latest version and send it to you, but I'm too fragmented to be a maintainer.


Would anyone want to maintain it?


Finally, I would suggest renaming it to "net/bitcoind" as while it's the reference implementation, it's not the only one. (They even recently renamed the project to "bitcoin core" however "bitcoind" is a sensible name.)


Thanks!
