Deploy on hVM

This documentation page is outdated and may not reflect current information.

📜 TL;DR:

• To use hVM directly, you will have to call the appropriate precompile address with the appropriate serialized bytes to pass parameters to the function.

• Most dApp developers will use the Hemi Bitcoin Kit (hBK) rather than hVM directly.

🌐 Overview

• To use hVM directly, you will have to call the appropriate precompile address with the appropriate serialized bytes to pass parameters to the function.

• Each successful precompile call will return serialized bytes according to the precompile’s return data specification.

🟨 Developer Tip

Most dApp developers will use the Hemi Bitcoin Kit (hBK) rather than hVM directly.

• If you’re looking for an easy way to get started developing Bitcoin-aware dApps on Hemi, check out the “Hemi Bitcoin Kit (hBK)” section. Understanding how Bitcoin Kit uses hVM under-the-hood may be helpful, and dApp developers looking to maximize gas efficiency may benefit from using hVM directly to avoid paying overhead for unmarshalling data they don’t need for a specific use case.
