Fopnu

A P2P file sharing system for decentralized transfers.

Visit Fopnu

The network is fully decentralized, with shared files indexed locally on each user's machine. Searches are not relayed to other users. The application uses a pure UDP protocol with forward error correction, full connection encryption, and a decentralized public key infrastructure. A recirculating token system is used to distribute upload bandwidth fairly among peers. Transfers are handled by re-combining and re-encoding blocks at all nodes.
