Mitrid Core is a framework for building blockchains and other block-based distributed technology ledgers. It is meant to be flexible enough to cover different architectures (permissionless and permissioned; with authenticated chains, trees or directed graphs) and to let developers use the cryptographical protocols they prefer. Add-ons will be added to ease development.
