A recent revision of the Ethereum white paper removes the denominations labeled 'lovelace', 'babbage' and 'shannon' [1]. This commit reflects the change to the whitepaper by removing the corresponding labels from the Denomination enum (as an aside, note the discrepancy between 'lovelace' in the whitepaper and 'ada' in our implementation). go-ethereum still contains these values, but cpp-ethereum does not. This commit assumes that the whitepaper and cpp implementation represent the current consensus on explicitly named denominations. By the same rationale, the 'douglas' and 'einstein' labels have been removed as well. These values never appeared in the whitepaper or cpp implementations. They were introduced to the go implementation in ethereum/go-ethereum@e7d9bcd, but because the whitepaper and cpp implementation are silent on these values, they are omitted here.

Welcome to ethereumj

About
ethereumj is a pure-Java implementation of the Ethereum protocol. For high-level information about Ethereum and its goals, visit ethereum.org. The ethereum white paper provides a complete conceptual overview, and the yellow paper provides a formal definition of the protocol.
This repository consists of:
- ethereum-core: a library suitable for inclusion in any JVM-based project.
- ethereum-studio: a simple GUI for exploring Ethereum functionality and usage of the ethereumj API.
To see ethereum-studio in action, watch this video.
Todo
The Ethereum protocol is under heavy development, thus so is this implementation. See the todo list, GitHub Issues and milestone schedule. Issues are prioritized using waffle.

Building from source
- Clone this repository and run
./gradlew build
(or at least./gradlew antlr4
to generate sources). - Import all sources into IntelliJ IDEA (14+) with
File->Import project
and point to the top-levelbuild.gradle
file. - Make sure to set your language level in
File->Project Structure...
to JDK 8. - Run
Build->Make Project
. When complete, there should be no errors.
