# What is Hush?
Hush implements Extreme Privacy via blockchain tech. We have our own
genesis block. We are not a chain fork (copy) of another coin. We are based on
Bitcoin code, with sophisticated zero-knowledge mathematics added for privacy.
This keeps your transaction metadata private!
### This repository
# What is this repository?
This software is the Hush node and command-line client. It downloads and stores
the entire history of Hush transactions; depending on the speed of your
computer and network connection, it will likely take a few hours at least, but
some people report full nodes syncing in less than 1.5 hours. A competing privacy
coin takes over 24 hours to sync their full nodes because of Sprout Transactions, lulz.
some people report full nodes syncing in less than 1.5 hours.
### BANNED BY GITHUB
# Banned by GitHub
In working on this release, Duke Leto was suspended from Github, which gave Hush developers
the impetus to completely leave that racist and censorship-loving platform.
Hush now has it's own [git.hush.is](https://git.hush.is/hush) Gitea instance,
because we will not be silenced by Microsoft.
All Hush software will be released from git.hush.is and hush.is, downloads from any other
the impetus to completely leave that racist and censorship-loving platform. Hush now has it's own [git.hush.is](https://git.hush.is/hush) Gitea instance,
because we will not be silenced by Microsoft. All Hush software will be released from git.hush.is and hush.is, downloads from any other
domains should be assumed to be backdoored.
**Hush is unfinished and highly experimental.** Use at your own risk! Just like Bitcoin.
## Installing

sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libc6-dev m4 g++-multilib \
autoconf libtool ncurses-dev unzip git zlib1g-dev wget \
bsdmainutils automake curl unzip nano libsodium-dev cmake
# clone git repo
git clone https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3
cd hush3
# Build
# This uses 3 build processes, you need 2GB of RAM for each.
./build.sh -j3
```

```sh
# install build dependencies
sudo pacman -S gcc libsodium lib32-zlib unzip wget git python rust curl autoconf cmake
# clone git repo
git clone https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3
cd hush3
# Build
# This uses 3 build processes, you need 2GB of RAM for each.

# Install on ARM Architecture
Use this if you have a Raspberry Pi or similar computer. Currently, any ARMv7 machine will not be able to build this repo, because the underlying tech (zcash and the zksnark library) do not support that instruction set. This also means that old RaspberryPi devices will not work, unless they have a newer ARMv8-based Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi 4 and newer are known to work.
1. [Download the latest Debian package with the AARCH64 designation from the releases page](https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3/releases).
1. Install the Debian package, substituting "VERSION-NUMBER" for the version you have downloaded: `sudo dpkg -i hush-VERSION-NUMBER-aarch64.deb`.
1. Run with: `hushd`.
# Building On Ubuntu 16.04 and older systems
Some older compilers may not be able to compile modern code, such as gcc 5.4 which comes with Ubuntu 16.04 by default. Here is how to install gcc 7 on Ubuntu 16.04. Run these commands as root:
```
add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test && \
apt update && \
apt-get install -y gcc-7 g++-7 && \
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-7 60 && \
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-7 60
```
# Build on Mac
```
sudo port update
sudo port upgrade outdated
sudo port install qt5
# clone git repo
git clone https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3
cd hush3
# Build
# This uses 3 build processes, you need 2GB of RAM for each.
./build.sh -j3
```
# Installing Hush binaries
1. [Download the release](https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3/releases) with a .deb file extension.
1. Install the Debian package, substituting "VERSION-NUMBER" for the version you have downloaded: `sudo dpkg -i hush-VERSION-NUMBER-amd64.deb`.
1. Run with: `hushd`.
# Official Explorers
The links for the Official Hush explorers:

* [explorer.hush.land](https://explorer.hush.land)
# Windows (cross-compiled on Linux)
Get dependencies:
```ssh
sudo apt-get install \

autoconf libtool ncurses-dev unzip git zip \
zlib1g-dev wget bsdmainutils automake mingw-w64 cmake libsodium-dev
```
You can either compile it yourself or you can install a binary which was compiled by us.
Please refer to the instructions which apply to you below:
Downloading Git source repo, building and running Hush:
* See [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md) to compile from source on Linux and to cross-compile for Windows
* See [INSTALL-BIN.md](INSTALL-BIN.md) to install pre-compiled binary on Linux
```sh
# pull
git clone https://git.hush.is/hush/hush3
cd hush3
# Build
./util/build-win.sh -j$(nproc)
# Run a HUSH node
./src/hushd
```
### Claiming Funds From Old Hush Wallets
# What is SilentDragon?
If you have an older wallet, then refer to [OLD_WALLETS.md](OLD_WALLETS.md).
* [SilentDragon](https://git.hush.is/hush/SilentDragon) is a desktop wallet for HUSH full node.<br>
* [SilentDragonLite](https://git.hush.is/hush/SilentDragonLite) is a desktop wallet that does not require you to download the full blockchain.
### Official Explorers
# What is HushChat?
The links for the Official Hush explorers:
* [explorer.hush.is](https://explorer.hush.is)
* [explorer.hush.land](https://explorer.hush.land)
HushChat is a protocol inspired by the design of Signal Protocol, it uses many of the same cryptography and ideas, but does not actually use any code from Signal. Signal requires phone numbers and is a centralized service. HushChat is completely anonymous and decentralized and requires absolutely no metadata be given to any centralized third parties.
# Can I mine with CPU or GPU?
Only ASIC mining is recommended, HUSH uses Equihash (200,9) algo, as does Zcash, Horizen or Komodo.
We are looking for alternate explorers to be run on Tor, i2P and other TLDs, if you are interested
please join Telegram and ask questions.
# Where can I buy Hush?
### For system admins
1. https://nonkyc.io/market/HUSH_BTC
1. https://tradeogre.com/exchange/BTC-HUSH
There is a new systemd user service script so you can easily start/stop/restart your hushd service on your server.
[Try it out today](doc/hushd-systemd.md) and the systemd script is located in the doc directory of the source tree.
