Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when assessing the Matic mainnet v1 launch configuration or locating its associated node-software and seed-node guidance.

Who it is for

  • Technically experienced operators reviewing Matic mainnet genesis configuration.
  • People considering running Bor or Heimdall nodes or joining the mainnet.
  • Community members who want to propose public peer-to-peer seed nodes.

Documented uses

  • Review the recommended genesis files and their published checksums.
  • Identify the recommended Bor and Heimdall software version.
  • Find the repository’s pointers to installation and mainnet-joining instructions.
  • Submit a community seed-node addition through a pull request.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The README recommends Bor and Heimdall version 0.2.0.
  • Published checksums are available for both genesis files.
  • The README warns that the software is highly experimental and that community adoption of the recommended genesis information is not guaranteed.
  • Installation instructions and the joining-mainnet guide are referenced, but the README’s links are not populated in the supplied text.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Compare local genesis files with published hashes

Check the two recommended genesis files against the repository’s published SHA-256 or BLAKE2 reference values.

Before you start

  • Local copies of the Bor and Heimdall genesis files
  • Shell utilities shasum -a 256 and b2sum

Steps

  1. Calculate SHA-256 or BLAKE2 for bor/genesis.json and compare each result with the corresponding value in the README.

  2. Repeat for heimdall/config/genesis.json using its matching published value.

Expected outcome

You can determine whether the local files match the reference hashes listed in the repository.

Guide limitations

  • A matching hash does not guarantee that a network will start or that the community will use the recommended genesis files.
  • The README describes the software as highly experimental and advises technical caution.
