Private wallet queries, explained from the ground up.
BitcoinPIR lets a Bitcoin wallet ask "do I own UTXOs under this scripthash?" without revealing the scripthash. This guide walks through the protocol's moving parts — padding, cuckoo hashing, and Merkle-verified "not found" proofs — then shows how published database roots are tied back to Bitcoin block hashes and MuHash anchors. Every claim is grounded in the project's source code.
