Vouch is an Ethereum 2 validator focused on speed of execution for medium-to-large numbers of validators.
|

|
|
|

|
|
## Architecture
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Vouch is designed with an architecture that allows each action of a validator to take place at the optimum time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that there are a number of features that Vouch does not provide. These are, in general, decisions that have been taken to keep Vouch focused on its primary role of validating.
