Interesting! Is it related to libcoin? https://github.com/ceptacle/libcoin Does it (unlike Bitcoin) work on bigendian architectures? I can help you, but am already involved in way too many packages[1] so would prefer that you (or others) stay in the loop and participate in the ongoing maintainance of the packaging.
