### Wait, there's more ...

This repository provides links to information within the Constellation ecosystem, the primary target audience being software developers and community contributors. 

Our core focus is on developing the protocol. To deep dive into the reference implementation, check out the 

[constellation/docs](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/constellation/tree/dev/docs). 

The bulk of those docs can also be viewed on our documentation page.

If you want to understand how Constellation fits into the crypto space at large, the 

[constellation/wiki](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/constellation/wiki)

might be the place to start.

## Development



[comment]: 



### Code Base



[comment]: 



- [github root](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs) - Official public Constellation repositories.

- [constellation](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/constellation) - Core reference implementation in [Scala](https://www.scala-lang.org/).



#### Guidelines



For standards on code style, reporting troubleshooting and issues, pull requests and so on, check out

[/wiki/Contribution-guidelines](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/constellation/wiki/Contribution-guidelines).



### Running a node (tmp)

For now we onboard people to our private testnet that apply 

[in the form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeYZVXBu2zbiAwk6IDofHkxswurM-lxmzCaY_lMXytD1NCMXw/viewform) 

on 

[this Orion thread](https://community.constellationlabs.io/t/launch-and-operate-an-inaugural-constellation-testnet-node/891).



Most operators host the node in the [Google Cloud Platform](https://cloud.google.com/) (GCP) *compute engine* using a Ubuntu or Debian machine. 



You find the [**documentation**](https://constellation-labs.github.io/constellation/running-a-node/) down below and more is coming, as well as more support for terraform and docker.



If you have questions, ask in the *#testnet* chat on [Discord](https://discordapp.com/invite/KMSmXbV). The node-operators discuss know-how and hotfixes in *#node-operators*.



#### Minimal specs (tmp)



```haskell

    CPU:       2-core minimum

    Memory:    3 GB or higher

    Disk:      50-200 GB available

    Software:  Java 8.x

```

Make sure the relevant ports are open / not firewalled.

## The DAG Token



DAG is currently an ERC-20 token on the 

[Ethereum](https://www.ethereum.org/) 

blockchain and, as such, supported by various Ethereum wallets. You'll find support on the #support channel on the 

[discord](https://discordapp.com/) 

server. 



### Wallets



- [Metamask](https://metamask.io) - Browser plugin wallet

- [MyEtherWallet](http://myetherwallet.com/) - Browser wallet



MyEtherWallet tutorial:



- [How to ... add DAG to MyEtherWallet | Orion](https://community.constellationlabs.io/t/adding-dag-to-myetherwallet-mew/1892)

- [Guide on Setting Up a MyEtherWallet | Benjamin Diggles of Constellation](https://youtu.be/gEU3NQUM6EI)



### Explorers



The Ethereum contract hash is `0xA8258AbC8f2811dd48EccD209db68F25E3E34667`.

### Exchanges



- [Kucoin | DAG-BTC](https://www.kucoin.com/#/trade.pro/DAG-BTC)

- [HitBit | DAG-BTC](https://hitbtc.com/DAG-to-BTC)

- [HitBit | DAG-ETH](https://hitbtc.com/DAG-to-BTC)

- also Hotbit, IDEX, DEx.top, Bilaxy, etc. see the *Markets tab* on [coinmarketcap.com](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/constellation/#markets).



### Tokenomics



Total supply is 4b of which about 1b is circulating. Of the total supply, 40% will be rewarded to node-operators/validators and some will be rewarded for contribution (so some over 2b are to be distributed). 

Lots of information about the token has been posted on the 

[official blog](https://constellationlabs.io/blog/) 

on the official homepage: 

[blog/tokenomics-update](https://constellationlabs.io/blog/index.php/tokenomics-update/).



For a discussion of the utility, read the 

[economic-model paper](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/economic-model)

## Design



### Visual Identity



The 

[visual-identity](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/visual-identity)

repository holds hundrets of graphics material for the Constellation brand. See e.g. the

[/logo](https://github.com/Constellation-Labs/visual-identity/tree/master/logo) 

folder. Here is 

[a video](https://community.constellationlabs.io/t/a-video-analyzing-and-quickly-scripting-the-constellation-logo-using-python/1942)

explaining the specification of the latter.



### Merchandise



If you look for basic branded items, the [cryptothings](https://cryptothings.store/product-category/constellation/) store sells some.
