Cryptosphere is a global peer-to-peer cryptosystem for publishing and securely distributing content pseudonymously with no central point of failure, written in Ruby. It features an integrated cryptographically secure reputation system providing a distributed web of trust, inspired by Freenet, Tahoe-LAFS, and Git.

Use cases

• publish content pseudonymously without a central server
• distribute files over an encrypted peer-to-peer network
• build decentralized privacy-preserving web applications
• run a federated node in an open p2p cryptosystem
• rely on a cryptographic web of trust instead of central moderation

When to choose

• you want to experiment with p2p encrypted publishing concepts in Ruby
• you need a Git-inspired decentralized content distribution design reference

When to avoid

• you need production-ready software - the project is explicitly experimental
• you need an actively maintained tool - the last release was in 2016
• you need a supported alternative like IPFS, Freenet, or Tahoe-LAFS
