 ## Project
 
-ElectrumX 2.0.x (PyPI/package name `e-x`, import name `electrumx`): an Electrum-protocol server (asyncio) that indexes a coin daemon (bitcoind-like) into a local DB (LevelDB or RocksDB). This repo is a fork meant to be adapted to a custom coin; upstream is `spesmilo/electrumx`. Keep changes localized (mainly `src/electrumx/lib/coins.py`) so upstream merges stay easy. MIT license: keep `LICENCE`.
+`plm-electrumx`: a fork of ElectrumX 2.0.x (package name `e-x`, import name `electrumx`), an Electrum-protocol server (asyncio) that indexes a coin daemon into a local DB (LevelDB or RocksDB), supporting **Palladium (PLM) only**. All other coins and their code were removed (see `FORK.md` for the upstream base commit and how to merge upstream). Keep changes to core files small so upstream merges stay easy. MIT license: keep `LICENCE`.

 Pipeline (see `docs/architecture.rst`): `Env` → `Controller` (`server/controller.py`) wires together `Daemon` (RPC client to the coin node, `server/daemon.py`), `BlockProcessor` (`block_processor.py`, indexes blocks/handles reorgs, writes via `db.py`/`history.py`/`storage.py`), `MemPool` (`mempool.py`), `SessionManager`/`ElectrumX` sessions (`session.py`, the only place that knows the Electrum wire protocol and its versions), and `PeerManager` (`peers.py`). `Notifications` in `controller.py` merges block and mempool "touched" hashXs/outpoints so clients are not notified twice.
 
-Coin abstraction is the key extension point: `lib/coins.py` defines `Coin` and a large hierarchy of subclasses. A coin class selects behavior through class attributes: `DESERIALIZER` (block/tx format, in `lib/tx.py`, `tx_dash.py`, `tx_axe.py`), `DAEMON`, `BLOCK_PROCESSOR`, `SESSIONCLS`, address verbytes, `GENESIS_HASH`, `REORG_LIMIT`, `RPC_PORT`, `PEERS`, header handling, etc. Coins are discovered by walking `Coin` subclasses (`lookup_coin_class` matches `NAME` + `NET`), so a new coin is just a new subclass; non-final classes are abstract bases with `NET = None`. Concrete classes must define `TX_COUNT`, `TX_COUNT_HEIGHT`, `TX_PER_BLOCK` (used only for sync ETAs) or lookup raises.
+Coin abstraction: `lib/coins.py` defines `Coin` and the `Palladium`, `PalladiumTestnet`, `PalladiumRegtest` subclasses. A coin class selects behavior through class attributes: `DESERIALIZER` (block/tx format, in `lib/tx.py`, only the segwit one remains), `DAEMON`, `BLOCK_PROCESSOR`, `SESSIONCLS`, address verbytes, `GENESIS_HASH`, `REORG_LIMIT`, `RPC_PORT`, `PEERS`, header handling, etc. Coins are discovered by walking `Coin` subclasses (`lookup_coin_class` matches `NAME` + `NET`; `COIN` defaults to `Palladium`). Concrete classes must define `TX_COUNT`, `TX_COUNT_HEIGHT`, `TX_PER_BLOCK` (used only for sync ETAs) or lookup raises.
 
-Daemon requirements: for `COIN=Bitcoin`, Bitcoin Core >= 31 with `txindex=1` and `txospenderindex=1` is required (for `blockchain.outpoint.subscribe`); see `MIN_REQUIRED_DAEMON_VERSION` and `REQUIRED_DAEMON_INDEXES` on `Coin`. A custom coin on an older node must override these and the outpoint-subscribe path.
+Daemon: Palladium Core is based on Bitcoin Core 0.19: no `getindexinfo`, `txospenderindex` or `submitpackage`. So `MIN_REQUIRED_DAEMON_VERSION`/`REQUIRED_DAEMON_INDEXES` (see `Coin`) are unset, and `blockchain.outpoint.subscribe` / `blockchain.transaction.broadcast_package` return a daemon error to clients. The daemon needs `txindex=1`.
 
 DB schema changed in 2.0 with no migration; changing on-disk format requires a full resync.
 
 ## Tests
 
-`tests/lib` (coins, tx deserializers, hashes, scripts), `tests/server` (env, daemon, mempool, storage, API), plus fixture-driven `tests/test_blocks.py` / `test_transactions.py` using JSON files in `tests/blocks` and `tests/transactions` (add a fixture there when adding a coin with a custom deserializer).
+`tests/lib` (Palladium params, addresses, hashes, scripts), `tests/server` (env, daemon, mempool, storage, API), plus fixture-driven `tests/test_blocks.py` / `test_transactions.py` using JSON files named `<coin>_<net>_<id>.json` in `tests/blocks` and `tests/transactions` (real mainnet data from a synced node; tx vout values in satoshis). `test_storage.py` needs both DB engines installed. Bech32 addresses are not supported by `Coin.address_to_hashX` (base58 only).
