Chia Proof of Space
A prototype of Chia's proof of space, written in C++. Includes a plotter, prover, and verifier. Only runs on 64 bit architectures with AES-NI support. Read the Proof of Space document to learn about what proof of space is and how it works.
C++ Usage Instructions
Compile
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake ../
cmake --build . -- -j 6
Run tests
./RunTests
CLI usage
./ProofOfSpace -k 25 -f "plot.dat" -m "0x1234" generate
./ProofOfSpace -f "plot.dat" prove <32 byte hex challenge>
./ProofOfSpace -k 25 verify <hex proof> <32 byte hex challenge>
./ProofOfSpace -f "plot.dat" check <iterations>
Benchmark
time ./ProofOfSpace -k 25 generate
Hellman Attacks usage
There is an experimental implementation which implements some of the Hellman Attacks that can provide significant space savings for the final file.
./HellmanAttacks -k 18 -f "plot.dat" -m "0x1234" generate
./HellmanAttacks -f "plot.dat" check <iterations>
Python
Finally, python bindings are provided in the python-bindings directory.
Install
git submodule update --init --recursive
python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install .
Run python tests
Testings uses pytest. Type checking uses pyright, and linting uses flake8.
py.test ./tests -s -v
