Pactus is a full-node implementation of the Pactus blockchain written in Go. It is designed as an open-source layer-1 network focused on accessibility, decentralization, and low-energy participation. The project implements the core node, consensus, networking, wallet, storage, synchronization, transaction pool, state, and validation logic needed to run the blockchain. Pactus uses a Solid State Proof of Stake design that aims to avoid mining and make validation practical on lightweight hardware. The software can be built from source and used through command-line, graphical, Docker, and developer-oriented workflows. It is useful for validators, blockchain developers, researchers, and users who want to study or participate in the Pactus network from their own infrastructure.
