About CKB
CKB is a public and permissionless layer-1 blockchain. CKB uses Proof of Work and improved Nakamoto consensus to achieve maximized performance on average hardware and network bandwidth, without sacrificing layer-1's core values - decentralization and security.
CKB supports scripting in any programming language with its own CKB-VM, a virtual machine fully compatible with RISC-V ISA. CKB is a Universal Verification Layer which focuses on verification, leaves computation to layer 2 (and higher) applications/protocols.
CKB is a part of Nervos Network, which defines a suite of scalable and interoperable blockchain protocols to create a self-evolving distributed economy.
Support for different platforms are organized into three tiers, each with a different set of guarantees.
Notice: The ckb process will send stack trace to sentry on Rust panics. This is enabled by default before the mainnet launch, which can be opted out by setting
the option dsn to empty in the config file.
