As a new user coming from the infosec side of things, 'regtest' is usually an alias to fuzzing. While writing a binding to the API, I was under impression to use testnet with my code and I thought '-regtest' was mainly an internal feature for developers on lbrycrd. Could there be mention of ideal developer setup in the readme?

Thanks for opening this issue @binaryflesh. Definitely something we need to mention here/how it works/where to find setup instructions.
