Introducing Scorum

Scorum platform has three core functions:

  • Blogging platform where authors and readers will be rewarded for creating and engaging with content
  • Statistical centers where fans can browse and authors can use Microsoft’s Power BI tool to integrate data-rich visuals into their content
  • Commission-free betting exchange where fans can place bets against each other using Scorum Coins (SCR) Scorum’s blockchain protocol is built on the Graphene Framework and utilizes a delegated proof of stake consensus.

Public Announcement & Discussion

The Scorum team has been hard at work developing the blogging platform and the statistics center.

Blockchain consensus rules

Rather than attempt to describe the rules of the blockchain, it is up to each individual to inspect the code to understand the consensus rules.

Quickstart

Just want to get up and running quickly? Try deploying a prebuilt dockerized container.

Dockerized Node

See this guide for detailed instructions including commands for Ubuntu 16.04 (LTS).

Seed Nodes

A list of some seed nodes to get you started can be found in seed-nodes. This list is embedded into default config.ini.

Building

See doc/building.md for detailed build instructions, including compile-time options, and specific commands for Ubuntu 16.04 (LTS).

System Requirements

For a full node, you need 10GB of space available. Scorumd uses a memory mapped file which currently holds 2GB of data and by default is set to use up to 10GB. It's highly recommended to run scorumd on a fast disk such as an SSD or by placing the shared memory files in a ramdisk and using the shared-file-dir config (or command line) option to specify where. Any CPU with decent single core performance should be sufficient.
