What is lokinet?

Lokinet is a decentralised onion router that uses Oxen service nodes as relays, giving Lokinet the same market-based Sybil attack resistance as the Oxen blockchain. Lokinet supports web browsing, onion-routed real-time voice communications, and other applications.

Lokinet sends and receives IP packets, so anything that fits inside of an IP packet (which is pretty much anything) can work using Lokinet. The only thing Lokinet can’t handle is protocols that embed bare IPs in their protocol, like WebRTC and BitTorrent — but these still work through exit nodes, just not within Lokinet itself.

Lokinet is one of the best ways to anonymously access the internet and communicate with other users. Because of its next generation design, it works seamlessly with absolutely any application. Other networks — like Tor and I2P — require specialised applications or custom patches to work, but not Lokinet.

Imagine if the internet was private, anonymous, and encrypted by default. There are no restrictions on what data you can send or where it goes, all packets are equal. You can play games. You can video call your family. You can write a blog. The only limit is your imagination.
