🧱 — Components of Nibiru

  • CosmWasm Smart Contracts: Rust-based, Wasm smart contracts built enhanced security, performance, and interoperability. See our CosmWasm sandbox monorepo (cw-nibiru) for the protocol's core smart contracts.
  • Nibi-Perps: A perpetual futures exchange where users can take leveraged exposure and trade on a plethora of assets — completely on-chain, completely non-custodially, and with minimal gas fees.
  • Nibi-Oracle: Nibiru accurately prices assets using a native, system of decentralized oracles, and communicates with other Cosmos layer-1 chains using the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) (opens new window)protocol.
  • Nibi-Swap: An automated market maker protocol for multichain assets. This application gives users access to swaps, pools, and bonded liquidity gauges.
Module Description
[wasm][code-x-wasm] Implements the execution environment for WebAssembly (WASM) smart contracts.
devgas The devgas module of Nibiru Chain shares contract execution fees with smart contract developers. This aims to increase the adoption of Nibiru by offering CosmWasm smart contract developers a direct source of income based on usage.
epochs The epochs module allows other modules to set hooks to be called to execute code automatically on a period basis. For example, "once a week, starting at UTC-time = x". epochs creates a generalized epoch interface.
inflation Implements the tokenomics for Nibiru.
common Holds helper and utility functions to be utilized by other x/ modules.
oracle Handles the posting of an up-to-date and accurate feed of exchange rates from the validators.
perp Powers the Nibi-Perps exchange. This module enables traders to open long and short leveraged positions and houses all of the PnL calculation and liquidation logic.
spot Responsible for creating, joining, and exiting liquidity pools. It also allows users to swap between two assets in an existing pool. It's a fully functional AMM.

Nibiru is built with the Cosmos-SDK on Tendermint Core consensus and communicates with other blockchain chains using the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol.


⛓️ — Building: make commands

Installation instructions for the nibid binary can be found in INSTALL.md.

Recommended minimum specs:

  • 2CPU, 4GB RAM, 100GB SSD
  • Unix system: MacOS or Ubuntu 18+

Nibid CLI

To simply access the nibid CLI, run:

make install

Usage instructions for the nibid CLI are available at docs.nibiru.fi/dev/cli and the Nibiru Module Reference.

Running a Local Node

On a fresh clone of the repo, simply run:

make localnet

and open another terminal.

Generate the protobufs

make proto-gen

Linter

We use the golangci-lint linter. Install it and run

golangci-lint run

at the root directory. You can also install the VSCode or Goland IDE plugins.

Multiple Nodes

Run the following commands to set up a local network of Docker containers running the chain.

make build-docker-nibidnode

make localnet-start
