NKN | Network Infrastructure for Decentralized Internet

Infrastructure

for a decentralized
Internet

NKN is a new kind of peer to peer network connectivity protocol and ecosystem powered by a novel public blockchain. It uses economic incentives to motivate Internet users to share network connections and utilize unused bandwidth.

The New Kind of Network

Easy To Use

NKN makes it easy for everybody to use and utilize our services. Our code is available in many programming languages so it's easy to adopt for every developer.

Optimized Routing

The NKN network always finds the most optimal route to it's destination. Using our own "proximity routing" algorithm, data is always taking the fastest possible relayers.

Private and Secure Delivery

NKN works without the direct use of an IP address. Data is stored only in the local device, and always guarantees best protection of privacy and security.

Solutions in the NKN Ecosystem

nMobile

With nMobile, we created an all-in-one solution for decentralized chat, wallet integration, and solution utilization. It eliminates the possibility of security and privacy breaches by removing centralized servers entirely.

nConnect

With nConnect, we offer a unique remote access solution with strongest security and ultimate privacy. This revolutionary service allows our users to reach to all their private data and personal files in just one click, whenever or wherever they want.

DataRide

With dataRide we provide custom built solutions (e.g. nCDN or nConnect) for customers, as well as documented resources for developers who want to code applications on their own.

Solving all the problems todays internet can't!

Millions of nodes

NKN's novel MOCA consensus algorithm is horizontally scalable and supports an arbitrary number of consensus nodes. NKN mainnet can support millions of full consensus nodes, more than Bitcoin and Ethereum.

High availablility
Decentralization

Aggregated high speed

Nodes and clients can utilize the aggregated speed of several routes. Adding more NKN nodes to the network can horizontally scale throughput for the entire network.

Always fastest route
Load balanced

Zero Server

Fully peer to peer and decentralized, with no need to develop and run centralized servers. Significantly reducing complexity and costs, as well as removing the single point of failure and a centralized target for attacks or hacking.

100% secure
0% Downtime

Unique and global ID

Unique NKN addresses enable services from anywhere in the world and at any time, and also helps people discover and search for applications and services.

Reliable data transactions
Communication everywhere

Extra security and privacy

End-to-end and hop-by-hop encryption without Public Key Infrastructure or 3rd party certificates.

Additional security layer
No central certificate authority

Low latency

NKN Supports all application types including real-time 3D gaming, AR/VR, and IoT, as well as edge computing and optimized routing.

Low ping
Fast access
