Prysmatic Labs Validator Client Implementation
This is the main project folder for a validator client implementation of Ethereum Serenity in Golang by Prysmatic Labs. A validator client attaches to a running beacon node in order to perform proposer/attester responsibilities and manage the lifecycle of a particular shard upon being assigned to one.
Before you begin, check out our main README and join our active chat room on Discord or Gitter below:
Also, read the latest sharding + casper design spec, this design spec serves as a source of truth for the beacon chain implementation we follow at prysmatic labs. Check out the FAQs. Refer this page on why we are combining sharding and casper together.

Overview ¶
Package main defines a validator client, a critical actor in eth2 which manages a keystore of private keys, connects to a beacon node to receive assignments, and submits blocks/attestations as needed.
This code was adapted from https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/blob/master/cmd/geth/usage.go
