Background

Streamr Network

On the Streamr Network, DATA is staked and exchanged for reliable bandwidth. This bandwidth market is brokered through stream Sponsorships. Sponsorships are smart contracts that connect off-chain data streaming with on-chain DATA token incentives. The result is a decentralized live CDN, capable of outperforming the Web2 giants on cost, reliability and speed.

Streamr Enhances Data Privacy with End-to-End Encryption

Thu 20th Mar 2025
Streamr has implemented comprehensive privacy features for data streams with end-to-end encryption by default. Key security features include: - Encryption keys never stored on central servers - Strategic key rotation prevents access to historical data - Permanent access revocation with no backdoors - Cryptographic signing chain prevents tampering - Peer-to-peer architecture with no central directory The platform's decentralized infrastructure creates a fundamentally different security model compared to traditional centralized systems where data is routinely harvested. This architecture supports censorship resistance while maintaining high performance at scale.
