Bitcoin CashalystFrom BCH Ecosystem
Time-lock or multisig BCH with CashScript—BCH’s answer to Solidity. No EVM, native UTXOs, auditable contracts.
CashScript is to Bitcoin Cash what Solidity is to Ethereum: a high-level language that compiles to Bitcoin Script. You write contracts in a familiar syntax (types, functions, conditionals), and the compiler outputs P2SH that runs on BCH. No virtual machine—contracts are native Script, so they’re predictable and cheap to execute.
Users want to lock BCH until a date (savings, vesting, commitment) or require multiple signers (multisig) without trusting a custodian. On Ethereum you’d use Solidity; on BCH you use CashScript. CashScript supports covenant-like patterns, time locks (OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY), and multisig. But there are few end-user apps. Builders need examples and a simple UI so non-devs can deploy “lock until timestamp” or “2-of-3 spend” contracts and fund them from a wallet.
Implement one or more CashScript contracts: e.g. Timelock (single owner, unlock after block height or time), Multisig (M-of-N), or a combined vesting contract. Provide a small web app to compile, deploy (get contract address), fund, and later spend (with correct signatures or after locktime). Publish the .cash source and document how to verify the bytecode on-chain. Compare patterns to Solidity where helpful (e.g. “like a timelock in Solidity, but it’s just Script”). Integrate with common BCH wallets for signing.
