Waku continues to focus on providing scalable solutions without relying on centralized servers. **Key Features:** - True peer-to-peer architecture - Mobile and browser compatibility - Decentralized encryption - Open-source implementation Learn more at [Waku Documentation](https://docs.waku.org)
Web3Privacy Now Hackathon Highlights Digital Sovereignty Focus
The Web3Privacy Now hackathon in Berlin showcased projects emphasizing digital sovereignty in web3 applications. Several finalists incorporated Waku protocols in their solutions: - @letsstepaside - OpenLavatory - Portal The event highlighted growing momentum in privacy-focused web3 development, with teams demonstrating practical applications of decentralized communication protocols. *Previous hackathons this year have seen similar focus on privacy and sovereignty, including the 100+ developer turnout at Avalanche Summit LATAM.*
Waku Promotes Open Source P2P Communication Development
Waku, a decentralized communication protocol, emphasizes its commitment to open-source development and privacy-focused solutions. Key points: - FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) technology available to all privacy advocates - Designed to eliminate user metadata harvesting - Offers scalable and reliable peer-to-peer communications - No permissions required to build on the platform Waku continues to support builders who prioritize user privacy and decentralized communication infrastructure. The protocol maintains its position as a foundational tool for developing privacy-preserving applications in the web3 space.
