README

---

Cannon (cannon cannon cannon) is an onchain MIPS instruction emulator. Cannon supports EVM-equivalent fault proofs by enabling Geth to run onchain, one instruction at a time, as part of an interactive dispute game.

• It's Go code
• ...that runs an EVM
• ...emulating a MIPS machine
• ...running compiled Go code
