+
+# Overview
+
+This is the genesis repo for `movemint` which is being built by replacing the [SMR] Module of [Libra Core] with [Tendermint]. We'll use *LC* to refer to Libra Core henceforth.
+
+Movemint talks to Tendermint via the [ABCI].
+
+Movemint will primarily depend on the Move language [crate] from LC. A hat-tip to the LC authors and the [Libra Assosciation]!
+
+When complete, Movemint may serve as node software for 1 or more Tendermint-powered networks. Some of these networks may join the [Cosmos] network.
+
+Movemint is a project of the [OL] collective. OL is grateful for grant funding from the [ICF].
+
+See the [Roadmap] to learn more about where we're headed.
+
+# Dependencies and TCB
+
+The current design of Movemint makes use of [rust-abci] for ABCI, [Abscissa] for CLI (and component management), as well as the [Tokio] runtime. (Tokio along with an Actor model is used in LC's `mempool` and `consensus` components.)
+
+As it stands, [Move] is not available as a crate so we have opted to include LC as a git submodule. This should change once the Libra Core components are published on a registry (like crates.io). See the [GitStrategy] doc for more info on our upstream/downstream strategy.
+
+We are focused on minimal dependencies (read [TCB]). Read more on the TCB philosophy from the Libra Assosciation blog: [The Path Forward]. One way of looking at movemint is as an LC-compatible implementation with a different (read smaller) TCB.
+
+We'll have more to say on the notion of TCB as it pertains to Movemint vs. LC.

+
+# Running the Placeholder App
+
+Make sure you have installed [Git], [Rust]/[Cargo], and [Tendermint].
+
+Clone this repo:
+
+`git clone https://github.com/open-libra/movemint`
+
+Update the Libra Core submodule. `cd` into the cloned repo and run: `git submodule update`
+
+Then build movemint: `cargo build movemint`
+
+To run it, open two windows:
+
+on the 1st, run: `cargo run movemint`
+
+on the 2nd, run: `tendermint init` and then `tendermint node`
+
+You will see that the dummy `movemint` app connects to Tendermint via ABCI. There is an *unused* MoveVM instance that is to be used to validate, verify, and execute transactions (TODO!).
+
+In the coming weeks we will be fleshing out this repository with code and documentation. See the [Components] doc to learn more about tools we are building.
+
+# Join the Movemint
+
+Now, you may want to join us as we work hard to make `movemint` a reality! Jump to the `Research` section; it may give you ideas to contribute as code or documentation! You may also want to join the [OL] collective's [Discord] channel.
+
+# Contributing
+
+Use standard GitHub practices. Fork this repository. Clone to your machine. Branch from the tip, etc.
+
+`git branch -b my_awesome_contribution_to_the_movemint`
+
+Code away, commit, test, and push to GitHub.
+
+Finally, when you're ready to merge, please submit a PR. We will promptly review the code and (if all goes well) we'll merge it to master!
+
+# Research
+
+For the past few months we've been busy doing research on the Libra ecosystem: papers, codebase, community, et cetera.
+
+## Our Strategy
+
+We have come up with a **∆ strategy** wherein the `Move VM` serves as `compatiblity layer` between a Movemint network and an LC network.
+
+We will publish a blog about this ∆-ular strategy of 'unpacking trust in Libra'.
+
+Note that [TCB] is a term used in the trusted computing domain.
+
+![∆](docs/L_OL_∆.png)
+
+## From Golang to Rust and Move
+
+The Tendermint/Cosmos ecosystem is increasingly adopting Rust. The [rust-abci] and [tendermint-rs] crates are good examples. There are also tools like `kms` and `sagan` built for Tendermint in Rust. We hope to contribute to the Cosmos Rust SDK in the process of building Movemint (e.g. a Rust equivalent of the Cosmos Go SDK's [BaseApp]).
+
+The Golang team has recently introduced the [Go checksum] database (built on [Trillian]):
+
+    Being able to authenticate a particular module version download effectively moves code hosting servers like rsc.io and github.com out of the trusted computing base [TCB] of the Go module ecosystem.
+
+Introducing a similar checksum DB to Rust (e.g. in crates.io) and to `Move` itself is within our [Roadmap]. This is beneficial to the Rust community at large as well as the nascent Move language ecosystem. More importantly, it allows Move-compatible financial networks to share Move packages in a trustworthy fashion. We'll explain our rationale and design goals in the [tlog-rust-move] doc.
+
+`Cargo` is a powerful tool into which we can introduce checksum database checking and more. To this end, we're building a `movemint`-specific plugin and a general purpose plugin to work with Move code from within Cargo. These are found in `./cargo-movemint` and `./cargo-move` directories, respectively. Both plugins are to be built with the [Abscissa] framework (h/t [@bascule](https://twitter.com/bascule)).
+
+## Protobuf + gRPC
+
+Last but not least, the `protofiles` directory is a repository of protobuf files extracted from LC, Tendermint/ABCI, and [Trillian] for convenience. Note that the last 2 are implemented in Golang whereas LC is written in Rust. We encourage researchers and developers planning to work on Movemint to familiarize themselves with the protobuf/[gRPC] files in the `abci` and `lc` directories first. (The `trillian` directory will come in handy too, in the near future!)
+
+The 3 directories roughly correspond to 3 points in a triangle, hence the `∆` in our strategy.
