Validators and developers run it to join the live chain, connect to a public testnet, or start a self-contained local test network. The node can take part in consensus as a validator, earning a validator score by solving the required computation, and it can be set up as a background system service that restarts automatically. Two features set it apart. First, it includes a smart contract platform in which contracts written in Rust with an SDK are compiled to RISC-V and run by the node's virtual machine. Sample contracts (a deposit vault, coins, collectible tokens and a role-playing game) and local testing support are included. Second, it includes a hub-based cross-chain bridge that moves tokens between the main network and external EVM chains. Wrapped tokens are burned on one side and minted on the other, and only the bridge can change their supply. On-chain light clients check each connected chain's consensus proofs, so transfers do not rely on a trusted third party. Escrow held outside the main network is tracked and capped per chain. Around the bridge are operational tools. Relays pick up tipped transfer orders and deliver them, and they keep validator sets current. Users can claim their own transfers instead. Administrators can set capped fees, pause one side of the bridge, hand over admin rights in two steps, and add support for another EVM chain by deploying contracts, writing an adapter and adding a matching light client. A relay service can run from a serverless worker per network or as a local loop. For operators, the repository provides build scripts and a containerized environment that produce release artifacts, with the native database component built into a single deployable release. Release packages can be cryptographically signed. Peer traffic runs over UDP, so the documentation covers raising operating-system buffer and backlog limits. The local testnet exposes an HTTP RPC endpoint and comes with ten preloaded keys. ## Tags ### Networking & Communication - [Blockchain Node Implementations](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/networking-communication/peer-to-peer-networking-extensions/peer-to-peer-networking-libraries/blockchain-node-implementations.md) — Implements a full blockchain node that validators and developers run to join the live chain, a public testnet or a local network. - [Cross-Chain Bridges](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/networking-communication/cross-chain-bridges.md) — Moves tokens between the main network and external EVM chains by burning and minting wrapped assets, with relays and light clients. - [Light Client Validations](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/networking-communication/cross-chain-bridges/cross-chain-attestations/light-client-validations.md) — Check each connected chain's consensus proofs, such as validator signatures, sync committees, and checkpoints, so transfers are accepted without trusting a third party.
