Waku Promotes Open Source P2P Communication Development
馃か Secret P2P Sauce Revealed
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.
Absolutely awesome to see builders, building! @Waku_org is FOSS technology, it does not belong to us, but to every privacy lover that want to move way from user metadata harvesting. Build on @Waku_org now!
@letsstepaside wins the Censorship Resistance track at the @web3privacy hackathon! Huge thanks to @web_oko for making it happen. And Dariy for recording a demo. @Waku_org, @Logos_network, @Keycard_ - let鈥檚 celebrate.
