Execution layer (eth1)	Execution layer

While our core focus so far has been the consensus layer, we are now devoting significant resources to our execution layer client.

Quickstart

To run Nimbus' execution layer client, first install the prerequisites.

Then run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1
cd nimbus-eth1
make update

# >>> WINDOWS ONLY <<<
make fetch-dlls # WINDOWS ONLY
# >>> WINDOWS ONLY <<<

make nimbus
./build/nimbus

Nimbus will now run and attempt to synchronize with the Ethereum blockchain.
