* bump chia_rs dependency and accomodate for changes to SpendBundleConditions and run_block_generator() * use ThreadPoolExecutor instead of ProcessPoolExecutor in pre_validate_blocks_multiprocessing * don't serialize BlockRecords when passing into pre_validate_blocks_multiprocessing * dont' pickle the list of full blocks passed into batch_pre_validate_blocks * don't serialize conditions when passed to batch_pre_validate_blocks * don't serialize previous session blocks passed to batch_pre_validate_blocks * don't serialize the return value from batch_pre_validate_blocks * make the batch size 1, in pre_validate_blocks_multiprocessing(). With the jobs running in a thread pool, there's no serialization cost we need to amortize over a batch * make batch_pre_validate_blocks() only validate a single block at a time. rename it to pre_validate_block() * avoid copying recent_blocks into each validation job. since they run in a thread we can just use the blockchain object directly * merge loops over the blocks in pre_validate_blocks_multiprocessing(), to simplify the code and to build fewer temporary lists

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 3.8.1+ is required. Make sure your default python version is >=3.8.1 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.
