Chain selection options:
−chain=<chain> |
Use the chain <chain> (default: main). Allowed values: main, test, signet, regtest
−signet |
Use the signet chain. Equivalent to −chain=signet. Note that the network is defined by the −signetchallenge parameter
−signetchallenge |
Blocks must satisfy the given script to be considered valid (only for signet networks; defaults to the global default signet test network challenge)
−signetseednode |
Specify a seed node for the signet network, in the hostname[:port] format, e.g. sig.net:1234 (may be used multiple times to specify multiple seed nodes; defaults to the global default signet test network seed node(s))
−testnet |
Use the test chain. Equivalent to −chain=test.
