And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain.
Home to the BenchCore MultiChain and currently 6 cryptocurrencies - BEX, MUZ, DAN, SHARE, SHOP, VID and more to come. BenchCore gives developers and companies the easiest pathway to launching their own blockchain, explorer, wallets and more, without much development experience.

BenchCore was built from Ark's original blockchain ark-node, which derived from Lisk and was originally known as Crypti. It has come a long way since then and is one of the most battle tested blockchain libraries on the face of the planet.
We have made the following upgrades to ark-node:
This is a fork from Ark with the following features:
- Removed SmartBridges and added SideChains
- Updated
Epoch Timeand some other constants - Updated Address Prefix For Root Chain to
Aor25 - Fixed Many Issues With
ArkCommanderand rebuilt the installer UI. - Create a multichain-like network ecosystem and all networks can be started via the package.JSON
- Cleaned up createGenesisBlock and renamed
createBenchGenesis - Redesigned Paper Wallet UI
- Redesigned Desktop Wallet UI and added new multichain network features
- Redesigned Explorer UI and added BitShares DEX market pricing feature
### Planned features:
- UI for SideChain Creation
- Automatic codebase duplication
- Make the codebase universal, by removing token names and blockchain names
- Add
Potion #9(More on this in the future)
### Performance
- Testnet produces 5tx/s
- Devnet produces 10tx/s
To easily install BenchCore, just copy and paste the following lines into your terminal.
cd
wget https://benchcore.io/installer.sh
bash installer.sh
Vagrant is a virtual development environment manager backed by a provider like VirtualBox.
To start the Vagrant environment:
vagrant up
All dependency installation and configuration for the dev environment is in the VagrantFile. After installation, ark-node will automatically start and log all output to the console.
To log into the Vagrant environment:
vagrant ssh
To destroy and revert to the original state:
vagrant destroy
vagrant up
There will be a drive shared with the host machine inside the VM, mounted at /vagrant.

NOTE: The port, address, genesis block and config-path can be overridden by providing the relevant command switch:
node app.js -p [port] -a [address] -c [config-path] -g [genesisBlock-path]
This allow you to run several different networks, or your own private chain
Generate a genesisBlock.json + a default config.json containing all passphrases of genesis delegates
node tasks/createBenchGenesis.js
Be sure to configure this file for your needs
- a genesisBlock.json containing the genesis block
- a config.json containing configuration to start relay nodes
- an autoforging config.json containing configuration to start all delegates on a single node (for testing purpose)
- a bunch of config files to distribute to different configured delegate nodes starting the network.
- a delegatesPassphrases.json containing details about the genesis delegates
- a genesisPassphrase.json containing the details of delegates that will launch your network
Obviously you can hack away tasks/createGenesisBlock.js for your own custom use.
You can the start with your own chain on a single node (all delegates will forge on your single node) using:
createdb networkname_type
npm run start:yourchain
Make sure to add this to the package.json file, as we have added other networks, so you can use the above commands
Then you can distribute the config.json (without the delegates secrets inside, and with custom peers settings) to peers to let them join your SideChain.

Today, the internet is more censored than ever and it's only getting worse. Our mission with the dWeb Protocol was to create a truly powerful P2P protocol, around benOS, dBrowser and many of benOS' underlying libraries to bring the most powerful P2P products to life. In the last few months, by rebuilding P2P technologies that have existed since the early 2000s, we have built a powerful suite of decentralized libraries for benOS and the Bench Network, that will only improve over time. But we also brought new ideas to life, like:
- dDrive
- dExplorer
- dDatabase
- dSites
- dPack
- benFS
- DCDN
- Rocketainer
- RocketOS
- dNames
- P2PDNS
- dWebFS
- dWebDB
- MeteorIDE
- Kepler
- Neutron
- Designate
- Nova
and more! These were the protocols and libraries that we needed to create a completely decentralized operating system, where everything was distributed, protected and people were once again in control of their data. benOS is made up of over 1100+ different libraries that we are releasing on a day-by-day basis as we move them to a stable/production state. While financial support is great for this open source project, we need developers who want to be some of the first to build the dApps and dSites of the future. We have to take back what our forefathers originally designed for freedom, by making our code the law, instead of releasing weak and highly centralized applications where law cannot be applied because the code lacks the foundation to implement a legal framework for itself. Join us for a truly historic journey on the BenchLabs Telegram. See you there.
