Written in Go, dcrd provides all the core consensus, networking, and validation logic necessary for Decred nodes to participate in the network. It plays a critical role in enforcing consensus rules, managing peer connections, and enabling advanced features like on-chain voting and self-funding via a decentralized treasury. Designed to prioritize stability and security, dcrd is suitable for miners, validators, and users operating infrastructure for the Decred blockchain.
