Client

Bitxor-based networks rely on nodes to provide a trustless, high-performance, and secure blockchain platform.

These nodes are deployed using bitxorcore-client software, a C++ rewrite of the previous Java-written BITXOR distributed ledger that has been running since 2015.

Learn more about the protocol by reading the Technical Reference and this documentation.
