Prysmatic Labs Beacon Chain Implementation
This is the main project folder for the beacon chain implementation of Ethereum written in Go by Prysmatic Labs.
You can also read our main README and join our active chat room on Discord.
Also, read the official beacon chain specification, this design spec serves as a source of truth for the beacon chain implementation we follow at Prysmatic Labs.
