Core Concepts

GhostDAG consensus, Paraconsistent Consensus, LVM, AI precompiles, and MCP.

Building dApps

Solidity development, AI precompiles, model registration, and verifiable inference.

Running a Node

Hardware requirements, client installation, validator setup, and monitoring.

Tokenomics

SALT token, supply schedule, staking, $SNAP NFTs, and reward mechanisms.

Governance

BR1J Constitution, DAO structure, proposal lifecycle, and voting mechanics.

API Reference

JSON-RPC, AI precompile ABIs, MCP REST API, WebSocket, and Explorer API.

Research

The Gradient Papers... nine papers on architecture, economics, and governance.

New to Citrate?

Start with the quickstart guide... with very little experience, if you follow the instructions you can deploy your first contract in under 20 minutes.
