What is Bitcoin-CLI?
Bitcoin-CLI is a command-line interface for the Bitcoin software that allows users to send commands to the Bitcoin network and receive output in the terminal. It is useful for automating tasks, such as creating transactions and querying the blockchain.
A fork in the Bitcoin network occurs when there is a disagreement among the participants about the rules governing the network. This can happen when a new software update is released and some users choose to adopt the update while others do not. As a result, the network can split into two separate versions, with one version following the old rules and the other following the new rules. This is known as a “hard fork.”
