Method Detail

fromRandom

public KeyChainGroup.Builder fromRandom(ScriptType outputScriptType)

Add chain from a random source.

In the case of P2PKH, just a P2PKH chain is created and activated which is then the default chain for fresh addresses. It can be upgraded to P2WPKH later.

In the case of P2WPKH, both a P2PKH and a P2WPKH chain are created and activated, the latter being the default chain. This behaviour will likely be changed with bitcoinj 0.16 such that only a P2WPKH chain is created and activated.

Parameters:

outputScriptType - type of addresses (aka output scripts) to generate for receiving

fromSeed

public KeyChainGroup.Builder fromSeed(DeterministicSeed seed,
                                      ScriptType outputScriptType)

Add chain from a given seed.

In the case of P2PKH, just a P2PKH chain is created and activated which is then the default chain for fresh addresses. It can be upgraded to P2WPKH later.

In the case of P2WPKH, both a P2PKH and a P2WPKH chain are created and activated, the latter being the default chain. This behaviour will likely be changed with bitcoinj 0.16 such that only a P2WPKH chain is created and activated.

Parameters:

seed - deterministic seed to derive all keys from

outputScriptType - type of addresses (aka output scripts) to generate for receiving

fromKey

public KeyChainGroup.Builder fromKey(DeterministicKey accountKey,
                                     ScriptType outputScriptType)

Add chain from a given account key.

In the case of P2WPKH, both a P2PKH and a P2WPKH chain are created and activated, the latter being the default chain. This behaviour will likely be changed with bitcoinj 0.16 such that only a P2WPKH chain is created and activated.

Parameters:

accountKey - deterministic account key to derive all keys from

outputScriptType - type of addresses (aka output scripts) to generate for receiving

Parameters:

lookaheadSize - lookahead size

lookaheadThreshold

public KeyChainGroup.Builder lookaheadThreshold(int lookaheadThreshold)

Set a custom lookahead threshold for all deterministic chains

Parameters:

lookaheadThreshold - lookahead threshold
