Simulating an Ethereum network at scale

Duration: 00:23:21

Speaker: Pop, Daniel Knopik

Type: Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Nov 2024

Previously, when Ethereum client developers wanted to test their ideas on the network layer, they either had to use a simulation tool that could be used only with some programming language or had to do network emulation instead, which requires a cluster of computers to do it at scale rather than running it on a laptop-size machine. This talk will tell you how to simulate an Ethereum network with 100+ nodes on a laptop-sized machine with production Ethereum clients.
