Lambda Consensus

A new Ethereum consensus client in Elixir. By @class_lambda

[Lambda Consensus @lambdaconsensus]

The LambdaConsensus Elixir client has been paused, as we decided to focus on:

@ethrex_client: a modular Ethereum L1 and L2 execution client in Rust

@ethlambda_lean: a minimalist, fast, modular implementation of the Lean Ethereum client in Rust

[ethlambda @ethlambda_lean]

gm.

At @class_lambda we are now building a new lean Ethereum consensus client called ethlambda. The goal is simple: help build the Ethereum cathedral that future generations will rely on.

See you this Thursday!

[Tomás Arjovsky @TArjovsky]

I'm going to be a speaker at @EthPrague this Thursday! If you're going, let's meet up!

I'll be talking about the @lambdaconsensus node, which we've been building at the @ethereum protocol fellowship the last 4 months.

I'm very grateful to the EF for their support on this project!

While we are preparing our suitcase for @EFDevconnect, we want to share some important October achievements! 😎

✔️ We are really happy because we started the Consensus Bootcamp, welcoming 4 members that have already learned a lot about Elixir.
The bootcampers are doing outstanding contributions to the repo, from state transition functions to our own ssz implementation!

✔️ In the Consensus Client, we added a fork-choice store, a pending-blocks-processor and a fork-choice tree implementing LMD Ghost, migrated networking calls from NIFs to ports.

✔️ Also, spec tests are now generated 10x faster and we kickstarted our observability stack with Grafana for P2P metrics.

✔️ In Istambul we will be presenting Lambda Consensus Client, an Ethereum Consensus Client developed in Elixir. This presentation is part of our participation on the @ethereum Protocol Fellowship, in which we aim to showcase and share our achievements. See you there!

(5/6) General updates:

- We kickstarted our observability stack! We now have prometheus and grafana powered dashboards. Our first metrics are libp2p failure reasons, peer connection metrics.
