<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
> [!NOTE]
> **Medium Risk**
> Refactor of wallet coin identification used during sync. Logic is
relocated rather than redesigned, but mistakes in wiring could mis-route
CAT/DID/NFT/clawback coins.
>
> **Overview**
> Moves coin-type identification out of `WalletStateManager` into the
wallets that own that logic. `determine_coin_type` still classifies
spends, then delegates to classmethod `identify` on CAT, DID, NFT,
PlotNFT, and VC wallets, plus `ClawbackManager.identify`.
>
> WSM drops `handle_cat` / `handle_did` / `handle_nft` /
`handle_clawback` / `handle_vc` and the PlotNFT matching block. Behavior
is intended to stay the same: auto-create/convert wallets, stray CAT
tracking, DID/NFT caps, clawback records. Clawback identification now
takes `add_interested_coin_ids` as a callback instead of calling WSM
directly.
>
> NFT auto-add tests now patch and call `NFTWallet.identify`.

Chia is a modern cryptocurrency built from scratch, designed to be efficient, decentralized, and secure. Here are some of the features and benefits:
- Proof of space and time based consensus which allows anyone to farm with commodity hardware
- Very easy to use full node and farmer GUI and cli (thousands of nodes active on mainnet)
- Chia seeder, which maintains a list of reliable nodes within the Chia network via a built-in DNS server.
- Simplified UTXO based transaction model, with small on-chain state
- Lisp-style Turing-complete functional programming language for money related use cases
- BLS keys and aggregate signatures (only one signature per block)
- Pooling protocol that allows farmers to have control of making blocks
- Support for light clients with fast, objective syncing
- A growing community of farmers and developers around the world
Please check out the Chia website, the Intro to Chia, and FAQ for information on this project.
Python 3.10+ is required. Make sure your default python version is >=3.10 by typing python3.
If you are behind a NAT, it can be difficult for peers outside your subnet to reach you when they start up. You can enable UPnP on your router or add a NAT (for IPv4 but not IPv6) and firewall rules to allow TCP port 8444 access to your peer. These methods tend to be router make/model specific.
Most users should only install harvesters, farmers, plotter, full nodes, and wallets. Setting up a seeder is best left to more advanced users. Building Timelords and VDFs is for sophisticated users, in most environments. Chia Network and additional volunteers are running sufficient Timelords for consensus.
Installing
Install instructions are available in the Installation Details section of the Chia Docs.
Running
Once installed, an Intro to Chia guide is available in the Chia Docs.
