Lighthouse is an Ethereum consensus client that connects to other Ethereum consensus clients to form a resilient and decentralized proof-of-stake blockchain. Lighthouse is available on Linux and macOS via the Homebrew package manager. We implement the specification as defined in the ethereum/consensus-specs repository. Becoming an Ethereum consensus validator is rewarding, but it's not for the faint of heart. You'll need to be familiar with the rules of staking (e.g., rewards, penalties, etc.) and also configuring and managing servers. You'll also need at least 32 ETH! Security-focused. Fuzzing techniques have been continuously applied and several external security reviews have been performed. Built in Rust, a modern language providing unique safety guarantees and excellent performance (comparable to C++). Funded by various organizations, including Sigma Prime, the Ethereum Foundation, ConsenSys, the Decentralization Foundation and private individuals.
