PySonar Runnable on Tendermint (Ethermint)

[iamtrask]

User Story: As a developer of OpenMined, I want the ability to spin up Sonar and PySonar on Tendermint using the Ethermint platform (not using Docker... just by running it locally)

Acceptance Criteria:

• a demo notebook exists wherein i can run the demo located in this notebook on a local Tendermint Ethermint blockchain
• much like this notebook the notebook created should include full instructions for launching the demo (including where to download ethermint deps, etc.)

not using Docker... just by running it locally

Is it not possible to run ethermint in docker? Having to run stuff locally seems like a step back. Maybe we should first figure out how to dockerize ethermint and then proceed with integrating it into the platform.

Do we have some notes on why Tendermint? Not that I'm against the decision. Just curious.

Who would be running the Tendermint nodes?

@anoff local deployment is just so that there are instructions for how people can do active development (I assume that when you're developing a component you don't also use the dockerized version of that component

@axelhodler Tendermint has a technology called "Ethermint" wherein you can run Ethereum code on the Tendermint blockchain and it runs 20x faster because the underlying security algorithm is proof of stake instead of proof of work. Tendermint already has a test blockchain that was recently released. Also, several of the core Tendermint developers are interested in the project (including the lead for Ethermint, @adrianbrink )

Hi there, does the notebook link your provided ( @iamtrask ) is no longer working.

Let's make a little demo using an Ethermint Setup right for a simple notebook?

Sounds good ? @axelhodler @anoff
