-## Should I use this in production?
-If you are thinking of using the *master* branch of this library in production, **stop**.
-Master is not stable; it is our development branch, and [only tagged releases may be classified as stable](https://github.com/bitcoinjs/bitcoinjs-lib/tags).
+## Overview
 
-## Can I trust this code?
-> Don't trust. Verify.
+A client-side Bitcoin library for Node.js and browsers, written in TypeScript. Provides low-level transaction handling, PSBT (Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions), address encoding/decoding, payment script creation, and cryptographic operations across multiple networks.
 
-We recommend every user of this library and the [bitcoinjs](https://github.com/bitcoinjs) ecosystem audit and verify any underlying code for its validity and suitability,  including reviewing any and all of your project's dependencies.
+This is a modernized fork of [bitcoinjs-lib](https://github.com/bitcoinjs/bitcoinjs-lib) with significant API changes:
 
-Mistakes and bugs happen, but with your help in resolving and reporting [issues](https://github.com/bitcoinjs/bitcoinjs-lib/issues), together we can produce open source software that is:
+- **Branded types** (`Bytes32`, `PrivateKey`, `PublicKey`, `Satoshi`, etc.) for compile-time safety
+- **Modular PSBT architecture** split into composable classes (`PsbtCache`, `PsbtSigner`, `PsbtFinalizer`, `PsbtTransaction`)
+- **Worker-based parallel signing** for both Node.js (`worker_threads`) and browsers (Web Workers)
+- **Native `Uint8Array`** throughout (no Node.js `Buffer` dependency)
+- **`bigint` for satoshi values** instead of `number` to prevent precision loss
+- **Structured error hierarchy** with typed error classes
+- **Granular sub-path exports** for tree-shaking
+- **Multi-chain support** including Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Dash
 
-- Easy to audit and verify,
-- Tested, with test coverage >95%,
-- Advanced and feature rich,
-- Standardized, using [prettier](https://github.com/prettier/prettier) and Node `Buffer`'s throughout, and
-- Friendly, with a strong and helpful community, ready to answer questions.
+> **Breaking Changes from bitcoinjs-lib**
+>
+> This library has undergone massive API-breaking changes. Transaction values use `bigint` (as `Satoshi`), all byte buffers are `Uint8Array` with branded type wrappers, the ECC library must be explicitly initialized, and key management has been moved to [`@btc-vision/ecpair`](https://github.com/btc-vision/ecpair) and [`@btc-vision/bip32`](https://github.com/btc-vision/bip32).
 
-## Documentation
-Visit our [documentation](https://bitcoinjs.github.io/bitcoinjs-lib/) to explore the available resources. We're continually enhancing our documentation with additional features for an enriched experience. If you need further guidance beyond what our [examples](#examples) offer, don't hesitate to  [ask for help](https://github.com/bitcoinjs/bitcoinjs-lib/issues/new). We're here to assist you.
+## Installation
 
-You can find a [Web UI](https://bitcoincore.tech/apps/bitcoinjs-ui/index.html) that covers most of the `psbt.ts`, `transaction.ts` and `p2*.ts` APIs [here](https://bitcoincore.tech/apps/bitcoinjs-ui/index.html).
+```bash
+npm install @btc-vision/bitcoin
+# Key management libraries (separate packages)
+npm install @btc-vision/ecpair @btc-vision/bip32
+# ECC backend
+npm install tiny-secp256k1
+```
 
-## How can I contact the developers outside of Github?
-**Most of the time, this is not appropriate. Creating issues and pull requests in the open will help others with similar issues, so please try to use public issues and pull requests for communication.**
+Requires Node.js >= 24.0.0.
 
-That said, sometimes developers might be open to taking things off the record (ie. You want to share code that you don't want public to get help with it). In that case, please negotiate on the public issues as to where you will contact.
+## Quick Start
 
-We have created public rooms on IRC (`#bitcoinjs` on `libera.chat`) and Matrix (`#bitcoinjs-dev:matrix.org`). These two channels have been joined together in a Matrix "Space" which has the Matrix room AND an IRC bridge room that can converse with the IRC room. The "Space" is `#bitcoinjs-space:matrix.org`.
+### Initialize the ECC Library
 
-Matrix and IRC both have functions for direct messaging, but IRC is not end to end encrypted, so Matrix is recommended for most communication. The official Matrix client maintained by the Matrix core team is called "Element" and can be downloaded here: https://element.io/download (Account creation is free on the matrix.org server, which is the default setting for Element.)
+The ECC library must be initialized before using Taproot, signing, or any elliptic curve operations.
 
-We used to have a Slack. It is dead. If you find it, no one will answer you most likely.
+```typescript
+import { initEccLib } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+import type { EccLib } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+import * as ecc from 'tiny-secp256k1';
 
-No we will not make a Discord.
+initEccLib(ecc as unknown as EccLib);
+```
 
-## Installation
-``` bash
-npm install bitcoinjs-lib
-# optionally, install a key derivation library as well
-npm install ecpair bip32
-# ecpair is the ECPair class for single keys
-# bip32 is for generating HD keys
+### Create a Key Pair
+
+```typescript
+import { ECPairSigner, createNobleBackend } from '@btc-vision/ecpair';
+import { networks } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+
+const backend = createNobleBackend();
+
+// Random key pair
+const keyPair = ECPairSigner.makeRandom(backend, networks.bitcoin);
+
+// From WIF
+const imported = ECPairSigner.fromWIF(
+    backend,
+    'L2uPYXe17xSTqbCjZvL2DsyXPCbXspvcu5mHLDYUgzdUbZGSKrSr',
+    networks.bitcoin,
+);
+```
+
+### Generate Addresses
+
+```typescript
+import { payments, networks } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+
+// P2PKH (Legacy)
+const { address: legacy } = payments.p2pkh({ pubkey: keyPair.publicKey });
+
+// P2WPKH (Native SegWit)
+const { address: segwit } = payments.p2wpkh({ pubkey: keyPair.publicKey });
+
+// P2TR (Taproot) - requires ECC initialization
+import { toXOnly } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+const { address: taproot } = payments.p2tr({
+    internalPubkey: toXOnly(keyPair.publicKey),
+});
+
+// P2SH-P2WPKH (Wrapped SegWit)
+const { address: wrapped } = payments.p2sh({
+    redeem: payments.p2wpkh({ pubkey: keyPair.publicKey }),
+});
+
+// P2SH Multisig (2-of-3)
+const { address: multisig } = payments.p2sh({
+    redeem: payments.p2ms({ m: 2, pubkeys: [pubkey1, pubkey2, pubkey3] }),
+});
+```
+
+### Create and Sign a Transaction (PSBT)
+
+```typescript
+import { Psbt, networks } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+import { fromHex } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+import type { Satoshi } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+
+const psbt = new Psbt({ network: networks.bitcoin });
+
+// Add input
+psbt.addInput({
+    hash: '7d067b4a697a09d2c3cff7d4d9506c9955e93bff41bf82d439da7d030382bc3e',
+    index: 0,
+    nonWitnessUtxo: fromHex('0200000001...'),
+    sighashType: 1,
+});
+
+// Add output (values are bigint)
+psbt.addOutput({
+    address: '1KRMKfeZcmosxALVYESdPNez1AP1mEtywp',
+    value: 80_000n as Satoshi,
+});
+
+// Sign, finalize, and extract
+psbt.signInput(0, keyPair);
+psbt.finalizeAllInputs();
+const txHex = psbt.extractTransaction().toHex();
+```
+
+### Async Signing
+
+```typescript
+await psbt.signInputAsync(0, keyPair);
+await psbt.signAllInputsAsync(keyPair);
 ```
 
-Previous versions of the library included classes for key management (ECPair, HDNode(->"bip32")) but now these have been separated into different libraries. This lowers the bundle size significantly if you don't need to perform any crypto functions (converting private to public keys and deriving HD keys).
+### Parse a Transaction
 
-Typically we support the [Node Maintenance LTS version](https://github.com/nodejs/Release). TypeScript target will be set
-to the ECMAScript version in which all features are fully supported by current Active Node LTS.
-However, depending on adoption among other environments (browsers etc.) we may keep the target back a year or two.
-If in doubt, see the [main_ci.yml](.github/workflows/main_ci.yml) for what versions are used by our continuous integration tests.
+```typescript
+import { Transaction } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
 
-**WARNING**: We presently don't provide any tooling to verify that the release on `npm` matches GitHub.  As such, you should verify anything downloaded by `npm` against your own verified copy.
+const tx = Transaction.fromHex('0200000001...');
+console.log(tx.version);     // 2
+console.log(tx.ins.length);  // number of inputs
+console.log(tx.outs.length); // number of outputs
+console.log(tx.toHex());     // round-trip back to hex
+```
 
+### Decode and Encode Addresses
 
-## Usage
-Crypto is hard.
+```typescript
+import { address, networks } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
 
-When working with private keys, the random number generator is fundamentally one of the most important parts of any software you write.
-For random number generation, we *default* to the [`randombytes`](https://github.com/crypto-browserify/randombytes) module, which uses [`window.crypto.getRandomValues`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/window.crypto.getRandomValues) in the browser, or Node js' [`crypto.randomBytes`](https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#crypto_crypto_randombytes_size_callback), depending on your build system.
-Although this default is ~OK, there is no simple way to detect if the underlying RNG provided is good enough, or if it is **catastrophically bad**.
-You should always verify this yourself to your own standards.
+// Decode any address to its output script
+const outputScript = address.toOutputScript(
+    'bc1qw508d6qejxtdg4y5r3zarvary0c5xw7kv8f3t4',
+    networks.bitcoin,
+);
 
-This library uses [tiny-secp256k1](https://github.com/bitcoinjs/tiny-secp256k1), which uses [RFC6979](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6979) to help prevent `k` re-use and exploitation.
-Unfortunately, this isn't a silver bullet.
-Often, Javascript itself is working against us by bypassing these counter-measures.
+// Convert output script back to address
+const addr = address.fromOutputScript(outputScript, networks.bitcoin);
 
-Problems in [`Buffer (UInt8Array)`](https://github.com/feross/buffer), for example, can trivially result in **catastrophic fund loss** without any warning.
-It can do this through undermining your random number generation, accidentally producing a [duplicate `k` value](https://www.nilsschneider.net/2013/01/28/recovering-bitcoin-private-keys.html), sending Bitcoin to a malformed output script, or any of a million different ways.
-Running tests in your target environment is important and a recommended step to verify continuously.
+// Low-level Base58Check
+const { hash, version } = address.fromBase58Check('1BgGZ9tcN4rm9KBzDn7KprQz87SZ26SAMH');
+const encoded = address.toBase58Check(hash, version);
 
-Finally, **adhere to best practice**.
-We are not an authoritative source of best practice, but, at the very least:
+// Low-level Bech32
+const decoded = address.fromBech32('bc1qw508d6qejxtdg4y5r3zarvary0c5xw7kv8f3t4');
+const bech32Addr = address.toBech32(decoded.data, decoded.version, 'bc');
+```
 
-* [Don't reuse addresses](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Address_reuse).
-* Don't share BIP32 extended public keys ('xpubs'). [They are a liability](https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/56916/derivation-of-parent-private-key-from-non-hardened-child), and it only takes 1 misplaced private key (or a buggy implementation!) and you are vulnerable to **catastrophic fund loss**.
-* [Don't use `Math.random`](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/181580/why-is-math-random-not-designed-to-be-cryptographically-secure) - in any way - don't.
-* Enforce that users always verify (manually) a freshly-decoded human-readable version of their intended transaction before broadcast.
-* [Don't *ask* users to generate mnemonics](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Brainwallet#cite_note-1), or 'brain wallets',  humans are terrible random number generators.
-* Lastly, if you can, use [Typescript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) or similar.
+### Parallel Signing with Workers
+
+For high-throughput signing across many inputs, use the worker pool:
+
+```typescript
+import { createSigningPool, SignatureType } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/workers';
+
+// Create a platform-appropriate pool (Node.js worker_threads or Web Workers)
+const pool = await createSigningPool({ workerCount: 4 });
+pool.preserveWorkers();
+
+const tasks = [
+    {
+        taskId: 'input-0',
+        inputIndex: 0,
+        hash: sighash0,
+        signatureType: SignatureType.ECDSA,
+        sighashType: 0x01,
+    },
+    {
+        taskId: 'input-1',
+        inputIndex: 1,
+        hash: sighash1,
+        signatureType: SignatureType.Schnorr,
+        sighashType: 0x00,
+    },
+];
+
+const result = await pool.signBatch(tasks, keyPair);
+if (result.success) {
+    console.log(`Signed ${result.signatures.size} inputs in ${result.durationMs}ms`);
+}
+
+// Or sign a PSBT directly in parallel
+import { signPsbtParallel } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/workers';
+await signPsbtParallel(psbt, keyPair, pool);
+
+await pool.shutdown();
+```
 
+## API Reference
+
+### Exports
+
+The library provides granular sub-path exports for tree-shaking:
+
+```typescript
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';          // Full API
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/address';   // Address encoding/decoding
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/script';    // Script compile/decompile
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/crypto';    // Hash functions
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/transaction';// Transaction class
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/psbt';      // PSBT classes
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/networks';  // Network definitions
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/payments';   // Payment creators
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/io';        // Binary I/O utilities
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/ecc';       // ECC context
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/types';     // Type definitions & guards
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/errors';    // Error classes
+import { ... } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin/workers';   // Parallel signing
+```
 
-### Browser
-The recommended method of using `bitcoinjs-lib` in your browser is through [browserify](http://browserify.org/).
+### Branded Types
+
+Values use branded types to prevent accidental misuse:
+
+```typescript
+import type {
+    Bytes32,           // 32-byte Uint8Array (tx hashes, witness programs)
+    Bytes20,           // 20-byte Uint8Array (pubkey hashes)
+    PublicKey,         // Compressed/uncompressed public key
+    XOnlyPublicKey,    // 32-byte x-only pubkey (Taproot)
+    PrivateKey,        // 32-byte private key
+    Satoshi,           // bigint value (0 to 21e14)
+    Signature,         // DER-encoded ECDSA signature
+    SchnorrSignature,  // 64-byte Schnorr signature
+    Script,            // Compiled script bytes
+} from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+
+// Type guards
+import {
+    isBytes32, isBytes20, isPoint, isSatoshi,
+    isPrivateKey, isSignature, isSchnorrSignature,
+    isXOnlyPublicKey, isScript,
+} from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+
+// Conversion helpers (throw on invalid input)
+import { toBytes32, toBytes20, toSatoshi } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+```
 
-If you'd like to use a different (more modern) build tool than `browserify`, you can compile just this library and its dependencies into a single JavaScript file:
+### Payment Types

+| Litecoin | `networks.litecoin` | `ltc` |
+| Bitcoin Cash | `networks.bitcoinCash` | `bitcoincash` |
+| Dash | `networks.dash` | - |
+
+### Error Handling
+
+All errors extend `BitcoinError`:
+
+```typescript
+import {
+    BitcoinError,      // Base class
+    ValidationError,   // Input validation failures
+    InvalidInputError, // Invalid transaction input
+    InvalidOutputError,// Invalid transaction output
+    ScriptError,       // Script operation failures
+    PsbtError,         // PSBT operation failures
+    EccError,          // ECC library not initialized
+    AddressError,      // Address encoding/decoding failures
+    SignatureError,    // Signature operation failures
+} from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
+
+try {
+    psbt.signInput(0, signer);
+} catch (err) {
+    if (err instanceof PsbtError) {
+        // Handle PSBT-specific error
+    }
+}
+```
 
-```sh
-$ npm install bitcoinjs-lib browserify
-$ npx browserify --standalone bitcoin - -o bitcoinjs-lib.js <<<"module.exports = require('bitcoinjs-lib');"
+### Utility Functions
+
+```typescript
+import {
+    toHex, fromHex, isHex,       // Hex encoding
+    concat, equals, compare,      // Buffer operations
+    clone, reverse, reverseCopy,  // Buffer manipulation
+    alloc, xor, isZero,           // Buffer utilities
+    fromUtf8, toUtf8,             // UTF-8 conversion
+    toXOnly,                       // Compress pubkey to x-only (32 bytes)
+    decompressPublicKey,           // Decompress compressed pubkey
+} from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
 ```
 
-Which you can then import as an ESM module:
-
-```javascript
-<script type="module">import "/scripts/bitcoinjs-lib.js"</script>
-````
-
-#### Using Taproot:
-When utilizing Taproot features with bitcoinjs-lib, you may need to include an additional ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) library. The commonly used `tiny-secp256k1` library, however, might lead to compatibility issues due to its reliance on WASM (WebAssembly). The following alternatives may be used instead, though they may be significantly slower for high volume of signing and pubkey deriving operations.
-
-#### Alternatives for ECC Library:
-1. `@bitcoinjs-lib/tiny-secp256k1-asmjs`
-   A version of `tiny-secp256k1` compiled to ASM.js directly from the WASM version, potentially better supported in browsers. This is the slowest option.
-2. `@bitcoinerlab/secp256k1`
-   Another alternative library for ECC functionality. This requires access to the global `BigInt` primitive.
-For advantages and detailed comparison of these libraries, visit: [tiny-secp256k1 GitHub page](https://github.com/bitcoinjs/tiny-secp256k1).
-
-**NOTE**: We use Node Maintenance LTS features, if you need strict ES5, use [`--transform babelify`](https://github.com/babel/babelify) in conjunction with your `browserify` step (using an [`es2015`](https://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/preset-es2015/) preset).
-
-**WARNING**: iOS devices have [problems](https://github.com/feross/buffer/issues/136), use at least [buffer@5.0.5](https://github.com/feross/buffer/pull/155) or greater,  and enforce the test suites (for `Buffer`, and any other dependency) pass before use.
-
-### Typescript or VSCode users
-Type declarations for Typescript are included in this library. Normal installation should include all the needed type information.
-
-## Examples
-The below examples are implemented as integration tests, they should be very easy to understand.
-Otherwise, pull requests are appreciated.
-Some examples interact (via HTTPS) with a 3rd Party Blockchain Provider (3PBP).

+### Crypto Functions
 
+```typescript
+import { sha256, sha1, ripemd160, hash160, hash256, taggedHash } from '@btc-vision/bitcoin';
 
-## Contributing
-See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
+const h = hash160(publicKey);         // RIPEMD160(SHA256(data))
+const d = hash256(data);              // SHA256(SHA256(data))
+const t = taggedHash('TapLeaf', data); // BIP340 tagged hash
+```
 
+## Browser Usage
 
-### Running the test suite
+The library ships with a browser-optimized build via the `browser` conditional export. Bundlers that support the `exports` field in `package.json` (Vite, Webpack 5+, esbuild) will automatically resolve to the browser build.
 
-``` bash
-npm test
-npm run-script coverage
+For Taproot operations in the browser, `tiny-secp256k1` relies on WebAssembly. If WASM is unavailable, consider these alternatives:
+
+- **`@bitcoinjs-lib/tiny-secp256k1-asmjs`** -- ASM.js fallback (slower)
+- **`@bitcoinerlab/secp256k1`** -- Pure JS with `BigInt` (requires `BigInt` support)
+
+## Running Tests
+
+```bash
+npm test                    # Full suite (lint + build + test)
+npm run unit                # Unit tests only
+npm run integration         # Integration tests
+npm run test:browser        # Browser tests (Playwright)
+npm run bench               # Benchmarks
