Description
Good day.
I have published about Betanet, yet I had not much of information to post about.

# Betanet
A new type of internet.
# About
Betanet is a fully decentralised, censorship-resistant network intended to replace the public Internet. This revision finalises covert transport indistinguishability, removes linkability vectors, specifies liveness for naming, hardens governance and bootstrap economics, and standardises adaptive calibration.

Just to add a bit of context, the latest Betanet Version 1.1 specification (released recently) brings significant improvements over 1.0, including:
• Full covert transport indistinguishability by mimicking real HTTPS TLS fingerprints and traffic patterns to resist censorship and detection.
• Removal of linkability vectors to prevent correlation of user sessions across different connections.
• Stronger liveness guarantees for naming with a multi-chain alias ledger and emergency advance governance mechanism.
• Hardened governance rules to avoid centralization or Sybil attacks through voting caps and quorum diversity requirements.
• Introduction of post-quantum hybrid cryptography starting January 2027 for future-proofing.
• Adaptive calibration against real CDN POPs and origin fingerprints to ensure seamless blending with normal Internet traffic.
If you’re interested, the official specification PDF and resources are available here:

Feel free to reach out if you want to discuss specific aspects like routing (SCION), privacy (Nym mixnet), or payment systems (Cashu + Lightning). Betanet’s full-stack approach to building a censorship-resistant Internet is truly fascinating.
