About Lokinet
Lokinet is a decentralized onion router that enables anonymous internet access by leveraging the Oxen service node network as relays, providing market-based Sybil attack resistance through the Oxen blockchain. It supports web browsing, onion-routed real-time voice communications, and other applications without requiring specialized software or custom patches. Unlike Tor, Lokinet operates on the network layer, allowing it to onion-route any IP-based protocol, including TCP, UDP, and ICMP, facilitating activities such as media streaming and video conferencing. Lokinet's infrastructure is built on the Low-Latency Anonymous Routing Protocol (LLARP), designed to address issues present in other networks like Tor and I2P. The Oxen Name System (ONS) provides human-readable, globally unique mappings to cryptographically secure long-form .loki addresses, stored and indexed on the Oxen blockchain. Lokinet clients are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
