### About Prysm
Prysm is a client implementation for Ethereum 2.0 Phase 0 protocol for a proof-of-stake blockchain. To participate in the network, a user must send ETH from Eth1.0 chain into a validator deposit contract, which will queue in the user as a validator in the system. Validators participate in proposing and voting on blocks in the protocol, and the network applies rewards/penalties based on their behavior. A detailed set of installation and usage instructions as well as breakdowns of each individual component are available in the official documentation portal, however, we do not warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of this documentation. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk.
