Compile without CI

We've dramatically reduced the dependencies to compile blurt.

Linux:

  • Clang 11 or higher
  • cmake
  • ccache

....that's it.

Here's how you do it, assuming a totally fresh system:

git clone https://gitlab.com/blurt/blurt
cd blurt
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc) blurtd cli_wallet

We use Arch Linux to compile blurt, but that does not mean that you must also use Arch. This should work well on Ubuntu and Debian, as well as others. It should also work on multiple CPU architectures.

Mac:

  • Clang 12 via xcode-install (don't use brew to get clang you'd have a bad time)
  • ccache
git clone https://gitlab.com/blurt/blurt
cd blurt
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc) blurtd cli_wallet

Features

  • No Downvotes
  • No Stablecoin
  • Transaction fees controlled by witnesses
  • A regent account with a controlling stake or special weighted vote has been added to Blurt.
    • The regent account can vote on Witneses and DAO Proposals.
    • The regent account decays over a two-year period with 24 equal monthly reductions to zero, starting at a power equal to all blurt supply.
    • The regent account does not impact:
      • circulating supply
      • inflation
      • reward pool

Economy

We feel that all actions that impose costs should themselves have a cost, so that we can avoid becoming a garbage patch.

Software Development

Work is ongoing in the dev branch.

The snapshot-verification code can be found in the snapshot branch.

Our next milestone is Hard Fork 3
