Welcome, we're glad to have you! Lixur is an open-sourced project building a distributed ledger platform. Lixur plans on implementing things such as DAGs and A.I smart contracts which enables fast, privacy-preserving, feeless, infinitely scalable, quantum resistant and an interconnected ecosystem, which users can make use of for any application requiring decentralized, automated intelligence and more. To learn more, please read the whitepaper 📖 Here 📖
This project is by no means complete and may feature plenty of bugs, security holes, etc. Please be aware of this. We haven't even launched the Testnet Beta yet so this is a work-in-progress.
You may have struggles to install the required module PQCrypto, it's likely you'll need to downgrade or upgrade your Python interpreter to 3.7.0 and manually install the package.
Installation Instructions for PQCrypto:
If you have previously installed the PQCrypto: Delete it completely off of your hard drive completely, restart your laptop and continue with the instructions
- Make sure you have Python 3.7.0 and uninstall all other versions of Python! Link: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-370/
- Grab the two folders, and move them to the following directory for Windows (or Mac/Linux Equivalent): C:\Users(Your Windows Name)\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Lib\site-packages
- Once copied and pasted there, restart your laptop and head to your text editor and it should hopefully work. Any questions, email me at naisukhy@gmail.com or submit the issue on the GitHub Repository
