Open Source Scala Blockchain Software

Waves Platform Node is a host connected to the Waves blockchain network. Waves is an open source blockchain platform that offers a full blockchain ecosystem for building decentralised applications. Nodes are its critical components, performing several important functions such as processing and validating transactions, and generating and storing blocks. Nodes store full blockchain data, pass this data to other nodes, and check the validity of newly added blocks. Validation ensures that the blocks are all in the correct format, all hashes are computed correctly, that the new block contains the hash of the previous one, and that every transaction is validated and signed by the right parties.

Eclair (French for Lightning) is a Scala implementation of the Lightning Network. This software follows the Lightning Network Specifications (BOLTs). Other implementations include c-lightning, lnd, electrum, and rust-lightning. Eclair offers a feature-rich HTTP API that enables application developers to easily integrate. Eclair's JSON API should NOT be accessible from the outside world (similarly to Bitcoin Core API). Eclair requires Bitcoin Core 0.20.1 or 0.21.1. (other versions of Bitcoin Core are not actively tested - use at your own risk). If you are upgrading an existing wallet, you may need to create a new address and send all your funds to that address. Eclair needs a synchronized, segwit-ready, zeromq-enabled, wallet-enabled, non-pruning, tx-indexing Bitcoin Core node. You must configure your Bitcoin node to use bech32 (segwit) addresses.
