Erigon is an Ethereum execution layer client focused on performance, low disk usage, and modular architecture. A core benefit of Erigon is its reduced disk footprint across all available prune modes — achieved through efficient state storage and compression, making node operation feasible on consumer-grade hardware. It also features an integrated Consensus Layer (Caplin), eliminating the need for separate CL software, and a BitTorrent-based protocol for decentralised historical data distribution.
