📜The curated resource list.

Table of Contents (short version)

Wait, there's more ...

This repository provides links to information within the Constellation ecosystem, the primary target audience being software developers and community contributors. Our core focus is on developing the protocol. To deep dive into the reference implementation, check out the constellation/docs. The bulk of those docs can also be viewed on our documentation page. If you want to understand how Constellation fits into the crypto space at large, the constellation/wiki might be the place to start.

Community

Our static knowledge, news and discussion outlet is the community portal Orion discourse forum. Join our discord server for a chat.

Please also have a look at the guidelines for contributions and troubleshooting, bug reports, support, etc.

Running a node (tmp)

For now we onboard people to our private testnet that apply in the form on this Orion thread.

Most operators host the node in the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) compute engine using a Ubuntu or Debian machine.

You find the documentation down below and more is coming, as well as more support for terraform and docker.

If you have questions, ask in the #testnet chat on Discord. The node-operators discuss know-how and hotfixes in #node-operators.

Minimal specs (tmp)

    CPU:       2-core minimum
    Memory:    3 GB or higher
    Disk:      50-200 GB available
    Software:  Java 8.x

Make sure the relevant ports are open / not firewalled.

The DAG Token

DAG is currently an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain and, as such, supported by various Ethereum wallets. You'll find support on the #support channel on the discord server.

Wallets

MyEtherWallet tutorial:

Explorers

The Ethereum contract hash is 0xA8258AbC8f2811dd48EccD209db68F25E3E34667.

Exchanges

Tokenomics

Total supply is 4b of which about 1b is circulating. Of the total supply, 40% will be rewarded to node-operators/validators and some will be rewarded for contribution (so some over 2b are to be distributed). Lots of information about the token has been posted on the official blog on the official homepage: blog/tokenomics-update.

For a discussion of the utility, read the economic-model paper


Design

Visual Identity

The visual-identity repository holds hundrets of graphics material for the Constellation brand. See e.g. the /logo folder. Here is a video explaining the specification of the latter.

Merchandise

If you look for basic branded items, the cryptothings store sells some.
