ZeroNet
Decentralized websites using Bitcoin cryptography and the BitTorrent network
ZeroNet is an open-source platform for creating and hosting websites that are distributed peer-to-peer across visitors rather than on a central server. It uses Bitcoin-style cryptography for accounts and the BitTorrent network for content distribution, allowing sites to remain accessible without a single point of failure and without hosting costs.
The platform supports dynamic, multi-user websites with real-time updates, decentralized .bit domains through Namecoin, and passwordless accounts protected by Bitcoin wallet cryptography. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac, with an experimental Android package, and works in any modern browser. Users can browse seeded sites offline, hide their IP address using the Tor network, and access the source code. ZeroNet is free and open source, developed by the community.
