GOSTCoin Core
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
GOSTCoin (GST) is a digital currency based on [blockchain](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain) technology.
|
|
It allows instant payments worldwide with focus on privacy and security of its users.
|
|
|
|
Why GOSTCoin?
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
GOSTCoin uses Soviet and Russian government standard cryptography:
|
|
[GOST R 34.10-2012](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7091) for signature and [GOST R 34.11-2012](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6986) for hash.
|
|
[More info about crypto](https://github.com/GOSTSec/gostcoin/wiki/Cryptography).
|
|
|
|
GOSTCoin is using [Invisible Internet](https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd) (I2P) as a secure network layer.
|
|
|
|
GOSTCoin needs I2P router
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
Install and run [i2pd](https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd).
|
|
|
|
Enable SAM API in i2pd. Edit in `i2pd.conf`:
|
|
|
|
[sam]
|
|
enabled = true
|
|
|
|
and restart i2pd. Local TCP port 7656 should be available.
|
|
|
|
