Testnet tools:

To decode bc1 address into witness program:

To encode witness program back, but into testnet tb1 address (can be used to claim tesntet comb).

https://bc-2.jp/tools/bech32demo/index.html

Bitcoin command for testnet (prune needs to be high, because with low prune the BTC
will escape from and Comb will get fall behind unable to sync the blocks - "wrong height" ):

Code:
./bitcoin-qt -server -prune=55000 -rpcuser= -rpcpassword= -rpcport=8332 -testnet

Can generate brainwallet for testnet using:

http://127.0.0.1:2121/wallet/brain/<number of keys>/<brainpass>

We've already synced with testnet. Let's hit faucet, get some testnet bitcoins, and claim some testnet comb.

Well that's useful.

I've done all the other stuff, but I don't see how you're getting BTC to run properly with a blank rpc user/pass. If the bitcoin.conf has "rpcuser=" and "rpcpassword=", it's smart enough to know nothing is there and instead spawn and use a cookie file for the relevant info.

Unless I'm missing something, if we want to allow the user to operate COMB without using a config, then we need to set default info (i.e. "user" and "pass") and tell them to insert those into the bitcoin.conf file.
