Polaris is a modular Go framework for embedding the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) into arbitrary applications or consensus engines, including the Cosmos-SDK. The project is officially deprecated and no longer maintained.

Use cases

  • embed an EVM execution environment into a Cosmos-SDK chain
  • build a custom blockchain with Ethereum smart contract support
  • integrate EVM into a custom consensus engine
  • run Ethereum-compatible smart contracts in a Go application
  • experiment with modular EVM components like state or gas handling

When to choose

  • you need a modular, embeddable EVM in Go and are willing to maintain it yourself
  • you want to study how an EVM can be integrated with Cosmos-SDK

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained, production-ready EVM implementation
  • you want community support or regular updates
  • you are building a new chain today - consider actively maintained alternatives
