Core Concepts
Understand the fundamental principles of the "Mesh First" approach.
anon0mesh is built on three pillars: Decentralization, Privacy, and Offline Resilience. Unlike traditional networks, we prioritize peer-to-peer connectivity as the primary transport layer.
The 3-Phase Flow
The entire network operation follows a streamlined 3-phase journey:
Phase 1: Offline Payload
The user operates fully offline. They generate a unique one-time use keypair for privacy and sign a Solana transaction using a Durable Nonce. The signed transaction blob is then broadcast via Bluetooth (BLE).
Phase 2: The Delivery
The network automatically chooses the best path based on what is nearby:
- Path A (Pure Mesh): Short-range jumps from smartphone to smartphone (approx. 100m hops).
- Path B (Radio Bridge): Long-range beam via LoRa radio nodes (up to 10km+).
Phase 3: Settlement & Incentives
As soon as a Beacon (a node with internet) receives the signal, it pushes it to the Solana L1. The smart contract automatically detects the successful relay and rewards the beacon.
Mesh Topology
Every phone acts as a relay, making the network more resilient as more people join.
Confidential Mode
No phone numbers or emails required. Activity stays local until chain path found.
Incentive Alignment
Relay node operators (Beacons) earn a 30% cut of protocol fees. Coverage becomes self-sustaining through economic rewards.
Disposable Wallets
Generate ephemeral keypairs for single transaction batches to prevent on-chain graph analysis.
Physical Mesh Pigeons
Our mesh is metaphorically described as a flock of pigeons. Data is delivered from device to device using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or radio frequency in remote scenarios. This allows users in rural communities or unstable networks to maintain communication.
"Our vision is the offline stack for Solana. Users in a subway with no signal should be able to swap SOL for USDC confidentially via other passengers."
