The Daemon, or [Full-Node Client](../advanced/03-node.md), is the core process of a Cosmos SDK-based blockchain. Participants in the network run this process to initialize their state-machine, connect with other full-nodes, and update their state-machine as new blocks come in.

The blockchain full-node presents itself as a binary, generally suffixed by `-d` for "daemon" (e.g. `appd` for `app` or `gaiad` for `gaia`). This binary is built by running a simple [`main.go`](../advanced/03-node.md#main-function) function placed in `./cmd/appd/`. This operation usually happens through the [Makefile](#dependencies-and-makefile).

There are two semantics around the new lifecycle method:

- It runs before the `BeginBlocker` of all modules
- It can modify consensus parameters in storage, and signal the caller through the return value.
* It runs before the `BeginBlocker` of all modules
* It can modify consensus parameters in storage, and signal the caller through the return value.

When it returns `ConsensusParamsChanged=true`, the caller must refresh the consensus parameter in the finalize context:

```
app.finalizeBlockState.ctx = app.finalizeBlockState.ctx.WithConsensusParams(app.GetConsensusParams())
```

The new ctx must be passed to all the other lifecycle methods.

As mentioned throughout the documentation `BeginBlock`, `ExecuteTx` and `EndBlock` are called within FinalizeBlock.
Although every full-node operates individually and locally, the outcome is always consistent and unequivocal. This is because the state changes brought about by the messages are predictable, and the transactions are specifically sequenced in the proposed block.

For HD key derivation the Cosmos SDK uses a standard called [BIP32](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0032.mediawiki). The BIP32 allows users to create an HD wallet (as specified in [BIP44](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0044.mediawiki)) - a set of accounts derived from an initial secret seed. A seed is usually created from a 12- or 24-word mnemonic. A single seed can derive any number of `PrivKey`s using a one-way cryptographic function. Then, a `PubKey` can be derived from the `PrivKey`. Naturally, the mnemonic is the most sensitive information, as private keys can always be re-generated if the mnemonic is preserved.

Application-specific blockchains are blockchains customized to operate a single application. Instead of building a decentralized application on top of an underlying blockchain like Ethereum, developers build their own blockchain from the ground up. This means building a full-node client, a light-client, and all the necessary interfaces (CLI, REST, ...) to interact with the nodes.

In a blockchain context, the state machine is deterministic. This means that if a node is started at a given state and replays the same sequence of transactions, it will always end up with the same final state.

[CometBFT](https://docs.cometbft.com/v1.0/explanation/introduction/) is an application-agnostic engine that is responsible for handling the *networking* and *consensus* layers of a blockchain. In practice, this means that CometBFT is responsible for propagating and ordering transaction bytes. CometBFT relies on an eponymous Byzantine-Fault-Tolerant (BFT) algorithm to reach consensus on the order of transactions.

Each module can be seen as a little state-machine. Developers need to define the subset of the state handled by the module, as well as custom message types that modify the state (*Note:* `messages` are extracted from `transactions` by `baseapp`). In general, each module declares its own `KVStore` in the `multistore` to persist the subset of the state it defines. Most developers will need to access other 3rd party modules when building their own modules. Given that the Cosmos SDK is an open framework, some of the modules may be malicious, which means there is a need for security principles to reason about inter-module interactions. These principles are based on [object-capabilities](../advanced/10-ocap.md). In practice, this means that instead of having each module keep an access control list for other modules, each module implements special objects called `keepers` that can be passed to other modules to grant a pre-defined set of capabilities.
