1 | It looks like cryptocurrency related packages are ending up in one of two |
2 | places: net-misc or net-p2p. The latter seems to be by virtue of the fact |
3 | that, |
4 | as an implementation detail, most cryptocurrency networks are peer-to-peer |
5 | in |
6 | nature. |
7 | |
8 | A (very) cursory look at the Gentoo ebuild repository shows: |
9 | |
10 | net-misc/bfgminer |
11 | net-misc/electron-cash |
12 | net-misc/electrum |
13 | net-misc/electrum-ltc |
14 | net-p2p/bitcoin-cli |
15 | net-p2p/bitcoind |
16 | net-p2p/bitcoin-qt |
17 | net-p2p/litecoind |
18 | |
19 | There are probably more, but this is what I could find quickly and easily. |
20 | Wouldn't it make more sense to silo these ebuilds (and similar) under |
21 | something |
22 | like fintech instead? |
