Wholesum network is a p2p verifiable computing network tailored for ETH L2 sequencer proving. It builds on top of Risc0, Libp2p, and decentralized storage options like Swarm and Filecoin to facilitate verifiable computing at scale. The design of the network follows a p2p parallel proving scheme where Risc0 jobs are passed around, proved, and finally combined into a final proof ready for L1 verification.
You would need to get certain environments ready for the client to function properly.
Docker runtime is needed as it is used to run Risc0 containers. This awesome guide from DigitalOcean is helpful in this regard.
-
Lighthouse:
You would need a subscription plan from Lighthouse to run the client. Please obtain an api key and specify it with-dflag when running the client. -
Swarmy: Still under development.
Install the MongoDB from here and make sure a Docker container runs and is listenning on localhost:27017
To run a client agent, you would first need to fork the following libraries and put them in the parent("..") directory of the client:
You would need a job file to engage with the network. Here's a sample job file for the SHA example:
# schema of a tyipcal job [prove] # segments' cid segments_cid = "bafybeigzlwqexnsbr2euhpgcivtx3ak7dejud6tg7dyiyja522qscdsovi" #po2 limit po2 = 19 # number of segments num_segments = 5 [verification] journal_file_path = "/foo/journal" # Risc0 image_id of the "sha example" image_id = "f3877c67f872cd6225e9d6038a5b7af0de2c3b5f3b2f27f76a8b09e2230a4f5c"
Save the above content to a file named simple_job.toml, and feed it to the CLI with the -j flag.
