Hashiverse
Your open-source Twitter/X. Your keys. Your posts. Your network.
Hashiverse is a decentralized, peer-to-peer social network built as an open-source protocol rather than a product. It uses cryptographic key pairs for identity, encrypts posts at rest, and distributes data across volunteer-run nodes to eliminate central ownership, algorithmic curation, and advertising. Unlike federated alternatives like Mastodon, it aims for true decentralization where no server admin can read, suppress, or control user content.
Users hold cryptographic key pairs on their own devices for identity, posts are signed and encrypted, and data is distributed across volunteer-run independent nodes using a proof-of-work mechanism to resist spam and attacks.
