gobanano

gobanano is a low effort banano fork of the excellent gonano; a nano currency node implementation, written in Go by @alexbakker.

The upstream project is WIP. Please see the upstream project for latest status and progression.

Thanks is also due for the wonderful protocol documentation.

Hopefully Alex has the cycles to continue this project, it seems promising.
