# Bitcoin Integration: Upgrade the `uploader` canister to the `bitcoin` canister.

This is an almost duplicate of previous [proposal](https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org/proposal/94726). The main difference is that the bitcoin canister module is gzipped to ensure it fits within the allowed IC message limits.

As mentioned on the [forums](https://forum.dfinity.org/t/direct-integration-with-bitcoin/6147/619), this is the second of three proposals to deploy the Bitcoin mainnet canister.

The [bitcoin canister](https://github.com/dfinity/bitcoin-canister/blob/launch/canister/src/main.rs) is going to start syncing blocks from height 764684 (the height that the state was initialized with by the `uploader` canister) until the tip. The canister will only be syncing the bitcoin mainnet chain and it will reject any other requests to the Bitcoin APIs. The last proposal will enable those APIs for public access.

## How can I verify the Wasm hash of this canister?

* Clone the [bitcoin-canister repo](https://github.com/dfinity/bitcoin-canister).
* git checkout 9ad387c949714d030411e8aea15578ddf937a8f0
* Run `docker build -t canisters .` to build the canisters and output their Wasm hashes.

You should then see the following in the output:

```
