Tutus Chain

Sovereign blockchain platform for government deployments. Forked from NeoGo.

Website: tutus.one License: Apache 2.0

Overview

Tutus is an independent blockchain designed for government-grade deployments with:

  • Sovereign instances - Each government runs their own chain
  • 1-second blocks - Fast finality with dBFT consensus
  • 7 validators - Government-controlled consensus nodes
  • Zero gas for citizens - Native contracts subsidize operations
  • Inter-government bridge - Optional cross-border interoperability

Building

Requires Go 1.24+ and make:

make build

The resulting binary is bin/tutus.

Running a Node

Start a Tutus node:

./bin/tutus node --config-file ./config/protocol.tutus.yml

For testnet:

./bin/tutus node --config-file ./config/protocol.tutus.testnet.yml

Network Flags

  • --tutus - Tutus mainnet (government deployment)
  • --tutus-testnet - Tutus testnet

Configuration

Network configurations are in ./config/:

File Purpose
protocol.tutus.yml Production government deployment
protocol.tutus.testnet.yml Development testnet

Docker

docker build -t tutus-chain .
docker run -d --name tutus -p 10333:10333 -p 10332:10332 tutus-chain

Native Contracts (Planned)

See docs/validator.md for government validator deployment.

Origin

Tutus is forked from NeoGo, the Go implementation of the Neo N3 blockchain. We maintain compatibility with the Neo VM while extending the protocol for government use cases.
