## Documentation

Canton is a privacy-enabled blockchain with unique requirements:

- **[Wallet Initialization Guide](./docs/WALLET_INITIALIZATION.md)** - Comprehensive guide to Canton wallet initialization transactions
- **[Quick Reference](./docs/WALLET_INITIALIZATION_QUICK_REF.md)** - Quick reference for wallet initialization
- **[Flow Diagram](./docs/WALLET_INITIALIZATION_FLOW.md)** - Visual flow diagram of the initialization process

### Key Features

- **Party-based Model**: Wallets are registered as "parties" on the Canton network
- **Wallet Initialization Required**: All wallets must complete an initialization transaction before use
- **EdDSA Signatures**: Uses Ed25519 curve for cryptographic operations
- **Multi-signature Support**: Threshold signatures with confirming and observing participants
- **Memo-based Addressing**: Address format: `partyHint::fingerprint?memoId=index`

## Development

Most of the coin implementations are derived from `@bitgo/sdk-core`, `@bitgo/statics`, and coin specific packages. These implementations are used to interact with the BitGo API and BitGo platform services.
