AntiochP 442ef3b255 port across "simple_sync" changes from testnet1 branch (#409)
* port across "simple_sync" changes from testnet1 branch
Cleanup direct refs to peer map or peer store
P2P server acts as a facade, handling the list of connected peers
and the storage of their information. Everything else goes through
the p2p server instead of having a peer map reference or going
straight to the store.
Fix p2p tests

* fix "monitoring peers" log msg (use connected_peers)

Grin

Grin is an in-progress implementation of the MimbleWimble protocol. Many characteristics are still undefined but the following constitutes a first set of choices:

  • Clean and minimal implementation, aiming to stay as such.
  • Follows the MimbleWimble protocol, which provides great anonymity and scaling characteristics.
  • Cuckoo Cycle proof of work (at least to start with).
  • Relatively fast block time (a minute or less, possibly decreasing as networks improve).
  • Fixed block reward, both over time and in blocks (fees are not additive).
  • Transaction fees are based on the number of UTXO created/destroyed and total transaction size.
  • Smooth curve for difficulty adjustments.

To learn more, read our introduction to MimbleWimble and Grin.

Getting Started

To learn more about the technology, read our introduction.

To build and try out Grin, see the build docs.

Philosophy

Grin likes itself small and easy on the eyes. It wants to be inclusive and welcoming for all walks of life, without judgement. Grin is terribly ambitious, but not at the detriment of others, rather to further us all. It may have strong opinions to stay in line with its objectives, which doesn't mean disrepect of others' ideas.

We believe in pull requests, data and scientific research. We do not believe in unfounded beliefs.
