DEPRECATED

The full node reference implementation was rewritten in Rust, as a result, the Go implementation is now deprecated.

PLEASE NOTE: Any pull requests or issues that will be opened in this repository will be closed without treatment, except for issues or pull requests related to the cryptixwallet, which remains maintained. In any other case, please use the Rust implementation instead.

Cryptixd

Cryptixd was the reference full node Cryptix implementation written in Go (golang).

What is cryptix

Cryptix is an attempt at a proof-of-work cryptocurrency with instant confirmations and sub-second block times. It is based on the PHANTOM protocol, a generalization of Nakamoto consensus.

Requirements

Go 1.23 or later.

Installation

Build from Source

Install Go according to the installation instructions here: http://golang.org/doc/install
Ensure Go was installed properly and is a supported version:

$ go version

Run the following commands to obtain and install cryptixd including all dependencies:

$ git clone https://github.com/cryptix-network/cryptixd
$ cd cryptixd
$ go install . ./cmd/...

 go build -o cryptixd.exe
cd/cmd/cryptixwallet
 go build -o cryptixwallet.exe

Cryptixd (and utilities) should now be installed in $(go env GOPATH)/bin. If you did not already add the bin directory to your system path during Go installation, you are encouraged to do so now.
