earendil

unstoppable peer-to-peer communication

Earendil is the first anonymous communication and transaction network designed to be decentralized, incentive-compatible, and ban-resistant. It is a foundational off-chain protocol in the Mel ecosystem.

Unlike VPNs, onion routers, and most "censorship-resistant" web3 protocols, Earendil is designed to run on fully hostile network infrastructure. It's nearly invisible to ISPs and defends against powerful attackers willing to ban rather than subvert or censor the protocol.

Earendil is currently a work-in-progress. A minimally functional pre-alpha is available.
