Diem Core is a Rust implementation of the Diem blockchain, a decentralized programmable distributed ledger designed for a low-volatility stablecoin payment network. It includes the Move smart contract language and the DiemBFT consensus protocol; the project's assets were sold to Silvergate in 2022 and it is no longer actively developed.
Use cases
- run a permissioned blockchain validator node
- study BFT consensus protocol implementations
- learn the Move smart contract language
- build a prototype payment network on a distributed ledger
- research stablecoin blockchain architecture
When to choose
- you need reference code for DiemBFT/HotStuff-style consensus
- you want to study Move's linear-logic resource type system
- you're researching the design of regulated stablecoin networks
When to avoid
- you want a production blockchain for new projects - assets were sold and development ceased
- you need an actively maintained smart contract platform - consider Aptos or Sui instead
- you expect stable APIs - the code was explicitly a prototype
