This one is Fulcrum. Have you tried that? There was an update just today I think, version 1.5.2. How does your server compare with that one? It also runs on Windows.

Well it's still a work in progress since the methods for peers and drawing a histogram are stuns.
Histograms can be drawn with matplotlib but I don't think libbitcoin can help with making a list of peers or inserting yourself into other people's peer lists. I wonder how many more lines of Python will that electrum-specific functionality take plus the existing 1000.

The peer stuff is trivial, since it's just about telling other servers about itself, and other servers can be retrieved through DNS seeds.
I didn't implement this yet because I don't really need it, and because I want the code reviewed first.
The mempool fee histogram stuff is deprecated since protocol 1.4.2, so I'll just drop that. The 1.5 protocol is going to have some new additions which I will have to follow up after the spec is written.

Since i never use libbitcoin, i'll just give basic feedback,
1. Have you compare the performance with ElectrumX or other Electrum server implementation?
2. AFAIK Electrum have it's own protocol and updated few times, so which Electrum (client wallet) version supported by Obelisk?
3. Is it right to assume Obelisk only support Linux?

I haven't yet. This is something I would appreciate help with, ideally from someone who is experienced in this kind of profiling.
2.
Electrum uses the ElectrumX server protocol as found in https://electrumx-spesmilo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/protocol-methods.html
I followed and implemented the spec.
3.
I develop and use it on Linux, but there should be no blockers to running it on any system that can use Python 3.

I've been working on an Electrum server implementation that uses ZeroMQ and libbitcoin as its backend so that I can use Electrum with my libbitcoin node/server.
It is written with using libbitcoin v4 in mind, so with public servers, only testnet is available because v4 is not yet finished, or if you have your own mainnet v4 server, then you can use mainnet.
The code can be found here: https://github.com/parazyd/obelisk
In total, it's about 1000 lines of Python code, which is relatively straightforward. This means it's 10 times smaller than ElectrumX for example.
If you're interested, I'd appreciate some feedback, help, and code review
Happy hacking!
