BEAT: Asynchronous BFT Made Practical

  • BEAT is an asynchronous Byzantine fault-tolerant protocol with high throughput and great scalability.

  • This repository contains a Python 2.7 implementation of the BEAT protocols. The prototype is built based on the implementation of HoneyBadgerBFT, another asynchronous BFT protocol https://github.com/amiller/HoneyBadgerBFT

  • Currently, only BEAT0 has been released. Other BEAT protocols will be released soon.

  • Please refer to the following paper for more details.
