How can I mine tokens?

Mining through Relay Participation: To mine ATOR tokens, you can run a relay in the ATOR network. The mining process relies on a Proof of Uptime system, where each relay's performance and bandwidth contribute to their rewards in ATOR tokens.

Miner Hardware?

ATOR Relay Device: The ATOR Relay is a specialized, low-power, autonomous computing device designed to function as a node in the anonymous network. It can be easily configured for use with the ATOR Network, even by non-technical users, to contribute to global anonymity and earn ATOR recognition tokens.

How can I use the network?

Using the ATOR Network: The network uses onion routing to ensure user anonymity. By routing traffic through globally distributed relays with layered encryption, it masks the IP address of all participants. The ATOR Relay, once fully functional, will also allow the routing of home internet traffic through privacy networks.

Who governs this network?

Decentralized Governance: The ATOR Network operates on a principle of decentralization, with no single entity controlling it. Instead of centralized directory authorities, the network uses decentralized directory authorities, potentially recorded on the blockchain. This democratizes the network's governance and makes it resistant to centralized control and manipulation.

Funding

Token Issuance and ERC20 Token: Funding for the ATOR Protocol includes the launch of an ERC20 token. This token plays a vital role in the ecosystem, providing incentives for relay participation, facilitating protocol rewards and governance, and acting as a unit of exchange for third-party services.
