Ouroboros Node

Ouroboros is a blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK that allows you to build your own passive income.

Requirements

  • At least 20 GB disk space
  • Golang >= 1.12 with the $GOPATH and $GOBIN variables set
  • *nix is not required, but preferred

Building

Just run ./scripts/build.sh or make install, then you'll be able to use it from your console by calling "ouroborosd" or "ouroboroscli".

Running local network for dev purpose

Run ./scripts/init-genesis.sh, then just start the node by ouroborosd start

Running the node

After building the node, you need to fetch the latest blocks from here https://ouroboros-crypto.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/blockchain.tar.gz

To unpack them, please do

tar -xvf blockchain.tar.gz -C ~/.ouroborosd/

After that, you'll be able to start your node via ouroborosd start

What's next?

All the other things described here https://docs.ouroboros-crypto.com/en/ including configuring your local console interface and running the API server.

Here are https://github.com/ouroboros-crypto/nodejs_examples some examples of working with the blockchain including account generation, txs sending, etc.
