Read writing about Bitcoin in Official BitGo Blog. Tales from the front lines of the digital currency revolution. We believe in Bitcoin, blockchain and the power of consensus code. BitGoD is a NodeJS package and binary which operates a bitcoind-compatible JSON-RPC API. It is designed to proxy non-wallet API calls to a local bitcoind instance, though this is not required, if those API calls are not used. For wallet-related API calls, BitGoD speaks on the back-end to the BitGo.

HoRNDIS is now maintained by, and this page is in a state of transition – keep your eyes peeled for updates soon.HoRNDIS (pronounce: “horrendous”) is a driver for Mac OS X that allows you to use your Android phone's native mode to get Internet access. It is known to work with Mac OS X versions 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) through 10.14 (Mojave – see ), and has been tested on a wide variety of phones. Although you should be careful with all drivers that you install on your computer, HoRNDIS has been tested at least well enough for the author (and many others) to run full time on their own personal computers.HoRNDIS is implemented as a kext, rather than as a user-space program that opens a TAP or TUN device; this means that it does not conflict with other TAP/TUN kexts that you might have installed (like OpenVPN, Tunnelblick, or Cisco VPN). The driver implements Microsoft's, which is the only protocol supported natively by Android devices; although Linux and Windows users have enjoyed native RNDIS drivers for years, Mac OS X supports only devices out of the box.The chief advantage of HoRNDIS over other tethering solutions is that it uses the a first-class supported feature in the phone's firmware.

Other solutions either take over the phone's Wi-Fi stack without the Android operating system's knowledge, or create an emulation IP stack in userspace on the phone; in many cases, the built-in USB tethering support can be more stable, more reliable, and faster.This page is also available in Russian:. My thanks to Vlad Brown for his effort in translation! OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) and 10.10 (Yosemite) are supported by HoRNDIS, but there are some gotchas.

If you upgraded from an earlier version of OS X, you may find that phones appear to be replicating with abandon in your network control panel. If this happens to you, one somewhat heavy-handed workaround is to clean your network configuration files – take a backup of /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist and /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist, and then either move them out of the way or delete them. (Note that this will remove any custom network configuration that you have performed!) I am still not sure what causes this problem, and so I do not yet have a workaround with finer granularity.Versions of Mac OS X 10.11 and newer have a than that in 10.10 and below. HoRNDIS 9.0 has been rewritten to support MacOS 10.11 and above (El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, and Mojave); for those versions of MacOS, please try the latest version of HoRNDIS! The latest version of HoRNDIS that supports older versions of MacOS (Yosemite and below) is HoRNDIS rel8.

The source is; it is licensed under the GNU General Purpose License, version 3. To build the source, you'll need Xcode 4.0+ installed; to build a version that will work under Snow Leopard, you will also need the Snow Leopard SDK installed. Unfortunately, the Snow Leopard SDK is hard to come by nowadays; you'll need to find it, and manually install it into your Xcode SDKs folder. (For most applications, it's OK to build against a newer SDK; for a kernel module, the magic vtable space-saving tricks require you to compile against the lowest common denominator.)Simply running xcodebuild in the checkout directory should be sufficient to build the kext. If you wish to package it up, you can run make to assemble the package in the build/ directory (though please don't publish versions you built as if they were official!).

On the shoulders of giants, I stand. My vague thanks to Apple for having at least some IOKit sample code available (even though the last time it successfully built was 10.2.x); it was a decent start reading to understand how I might want to structure this.

Substantial thanks to David Brownell, who wrote the rndishost driver for Linux; some portions of HoRNDIS were ported over from that work. David Brownell also wrote the frndis driver that allows Android/Linux devices to behave like RNDIS devices; reading that source helped to understand why HoRNDIS wasn't working in the early stages. Nec ea245wmi. (Sadly, David Brownell. Thanks for all of your hard work, David; may you rest in peace.)Thanks also to those who helped test HoRNDIS before I released it, as well as all of the other folks from the days of the unrEVOked project, without whom I would likely not be involved in Android development at all.Finally, thanks to, who is the current maintainer of HoRNDIS, and who did the hard work of porting HoRNDIS to the new USB APIs in the latest versions of MacOS.

Installation

Homebrew is package manager for Macs which makes installing lots of different software like Git, Ruby, and Node simpler. Homebrew lets you avoid possible security problems associated with using the sudo command to install software like Node.

Prerequisites

• You should have some familiarity with the Mac Terminal application since you’ll need to use it to install Homebrew. The Terminal application is located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
• Dependencies. You need to install one other piece of software before you can install Homebew:
  • Xcode. Install Apple’s Xcode development software: Xcode in the Apple App Store.

Installation Overview

Installing Homebrew is straightforward as long as you understand the Mac Terminal. The Homebrew installation process guides through each step.

Installation Steps

• Open the Terminal app.
• Typeruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)' You’ll see messages in the Terminal explaining what you need to do to complete the installation process. You can learn more about Homebrew at the Homebrew website.

How to Update Homebrew

New versions of Homebrew come out frequently, so make sure you update it before updating any of the other software components that you’ve installed using Homebrew.* In Terminal type brew update

How to Uninstall Homebrew

• Open the Terminal app
• Typeruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/uninstall)' This downloads and runs the uninstaller script. Follow the instructions and Homebrew will be removed from your computer.
