    indy-node contains a source code for the node running as part of the distributed ledger network. It implements PBFT consensus protocol, and it’s not intended to run as a public permissionless network as Bitcoin or Etherum but rather as a permissioned network. There is not one single instance of the Indy network. There are many of them. The most famous and publicly available is Sovrin, which was the first one. You can also use indy-node to run your network or run it locally on your machine via Docker for testing purposes.

    indy-sdk works partially as a client for indy-node, but it has much more functionality. The library is written in Rust, and you can find it under the libindy folder. The binary file name is the same. There are also wrappers allowing you to use the library with other languages like Node.js, .NET, Java, Obj-C, and Python. We can divide the functionality into three parts:
  • is there a dotnet base58 encoding library?

    I found did format in code. Its a spaghetti of stuff but it starts here: https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-sdk/blob/7349f5684bff5eb84bc370f1c6c8fc7e8c054613/libindy/src/services/crypto/mod.rs#L68
