Veilid is a peer-to-peer network and application framework released by the Cult of the Dead Cow on August 11, 2023, at DEF CON 31. [1] [2] [3] [4] Described by its authors as "like Tor, but for apps", [5] it is written in Rust, and runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, iOS, [6] and in-browser WASM. [7] VeilidChat is a secure messaging application built on Veilid. [1] [4]
Veilid borrows from both the Tor anonymising router and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), to offer encrypted and anonymous peer-to-peer connection using a 256-bit public key as the only visible ID. Even details such as IP addresses are hidden. [4]
