Py-EVM

Py-EVM is an implementation of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) in Python.

Goals

Py-EVM aims to be a readable yet generally performant version of the EVM in Python.

In particular Py-EVM aims to:

  • be easy to understand and modifiable
  • be highly flexible to support research and experimentation
  • be performant enough to be used in testing for Python projects
  • be a reference implementation of the Ethereum execution layer specifications

Ethereum consensus today is achieved via Proof of Stake, involving a consensus layer that is beyond the scope of this repository.

Installation

python -m pip install py-evm
