Perun Stellar Demo

This repository contains the Perun Stellar demo client, which utilizes the go-perun channel library, and also the Stellar payment channel backend

Setup

Clone this repository:

  $ git clone https://github.com/perun-network/perun-stellar-demo.git

Spin up the local Stellar blockchain, serving as a local testnet for demonstration purposes.

  $ ./quickstart.sh standalone

This will start the Stellar, Horizon and Soroban nodes in the background. This is the platform on which we deploy the Stellar Asset Contract (SAC), and the Perun Payment Channel contract. This allows us to create and utilize L2 channels on Stellar for any customized Stellar asset tokens,

  $ go run main.go
