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.
