SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires commander.

What problem does it solve?

Monitor Bitcoin mempool activity and transaction confirmation status to help you verify when a transaction is likely settled and to gauge network conditions without managing a wallet.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Tx status checks: quickly determine if a transaction is confirmed and view its confirmations.
  • Address history: audit recent activity for a given address to spot inbound/outbound flows.
  • Mempool stats: assess current backlog and estimate appropriate fees for timely sends using mempool.space data.

Quick Start

Run bun run mempool-watch/mempool-watch.ts tx-status --txid <txid> to check a transaction's confirmation status.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check Bitcoin mempool congestion and transaction confirmation status without a wallet?

Check Bitcoin mempool congestion and transaction confirmation status without a wallet by running a Bun TypeScript script that queries the mempool.space API and outputs JSON data for downstream tooling.

Can I retrieve address history and recent transaction activity using the mempool.space API?

Retrieve address history and recent transaction activity using the mempool.space API to audit inbound and outbound flows for a given Bitcoin address without managing a wallet.

How do I estimate appropriate Bitcoin transaction fees during mempool backlog?

Estimate appropriate Bitcoin transaction fees during mempool backlog by assessing current mempool stats from mempool.space data to gauge network conditions for timely sends.

Does mempool-watch work with Bun and TypeScript for CLI-based transaction analysis?

Mempool-watch works with Bun and TypeScript for CLI-based transaction analysis, using the commander dependency to provide quick visibility into mempool congestion and per-address activity.

What are the limitations of using a CLI tool for Bitcoin mempool monitoring?

Limitations of using a CLI tool for Bitcoin mempool monitoring include read-only visibility without wallet management capabilities, focusing solely on querying mempool.space API data for JSON output.

Why use a Bun TypeScript script instead of a full Bitcoin node for mempool visibility?

Use a Bun TypeScript script instead of a full Bitcoin node for mempool visibility to get quick JSON-consumable data on transaction status and fees without the overhead of syncing the blockchain.
