Networks
Bitcore provides support for both the main bitcoin network as well as for
testnet3, the current test blockchain. We encourage the use of
Networks.livenet and Networks.testnet as constants. Note that the library
sometimes may check for equality against this object. Avoid creating a deep
copy of this object and using that.
Setting the default network
Most project will only need to work in one of either networks. The value of
Networks.defaultNetwork can be set to Networks.testnet if the project will
needs only to work on testnet (the default is Networks.livenet).
Network constants
The functionality of testnet and livenet is mostly similar (except for some relaxed block validation rules on testnet). They differ in the constants being used for human representation of base58 encoded strings. These are sometimes referred to as "version" constants.
