After some more digging this seems to be on purpose. But expecting to install a message broker and getting crypto currency libraries unfortunately makes this a no-go for us.
Yes, this is on purpose. However, you are mixing things up: Ethereum is a blockchain, not a cryptocurrency.
The use case with Crossbar.io is:
The routers of Alice and Bob can mesh up via router-to-router links and provide one uniform, transparent realm that spans both routers.
Now, how do Alice, Bob and Carol establish trust in each other?
There is no single, centralized entity but router nodes and realm are fully decentralized. Etherum is used as the decentralized infra for that.
Users can use the public Ethereum mainnet blockchain, or any other Ethereum compatible blockchain instance.
Hi,
I just tried to install crossbar using pip as a part of installing buildbot. However it errored out and the packages it tries to download seems very suspicious (ethereal api/account etc).
