The quickest way to send files around privately. Not having to worry about the files living online forever is also a huge plus.

It's extremely easy to share files with just a link. Send the link to other people or just between your own computers, mobile phones and so on.

Awesome file sharing site! I've finally found a site that doesn't require an account or email and doesn't track you!

What is Wormhole?

Wormhole is a private file sharing platform that provides secure, end-to-end encrypted data transmission. It generates an auto-expiring link for confidentiality and prevents unlimited online access to shared files. Wormhole is designed for speed, generating a shareable link in under two seconds. It allows instant file streaming and employs a peer-to-peer transfer system for faster, secure transfers. The platform also keeps encrypted files on its servers for 24 hours to maintain link functionality.

Additional features include QR codes, open-source cryptography code, multi-language support, and a Microsoft Store app. It supports the Tor Browser, clipboard file sharing, an inline media viewer, custom expiration settings, a web share target, a delete button for early file removal, and a recent shares feature for easy link retrieval.
