peaq , the layer-1 blockchain for DePIN and machine RWAs, marking a vital leap in its ecosystem's evolution as ATOR takes on the role of privacy guard for DePINs on peaq. ATOR ATOR joins forces as the privacy measure for DePINs within peaq. As creators of the globe’s vast anonymous routing network, ATOR will implement its seamless privacy routing feature for peaq's DePINs.
TLDR
- ATOR integrates with peaq as the privacy solution for DePINs (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) developed on peaq’s blockchain.
- ATOR is set to unveil its streamlined privacy routing layer for peaq’s DePINs, alongside its own DePIN focusing on routers that prioritize privacy.
- ATOR employs onion routing technology and leverages the DePIN approach to establish a thriving, incentivized node network, providing a robust and secure alternative to centralized VPNs.
- With this integration, ATOR will broaden its liquidity to peaq, enabling seamless use of ATOR's privacy framework for DePINs on peaq.
- ATOR will examine the application of peaq's multi-chain IDs, along with other Modular DePIN Functions, for its personal relay network.
Concerns about online privacy are increasing for many. While VPNs and the Tor network provide some privacy, their centralized structure presents challenges.
For example, many free VPNs act as data collectors, tracking users. The Tor network, despite being a pro-anonymity marvel, faces bottlenecks with its volunteer-dependent relay nodes and is largely confined to web browsing.
ATOR tackles these issues by using established onion routing technology and the DePIN strategy to cultivate a growing, incentivized node network.
ATOR’s fully-decentralized architecture enhances resilience and security, avoiding reliance on centralized nodes, thus becoming an ideal privacy component for dApps and other DePINs.
ATOR’s merge with peaq marks a significant milestone for both networks. By broadening liquidity across the peaq network, ATOR bridges its token to layer-1 DePINs.
This collaboration lets DePINs on peaq easily integrate ATOR’s network for privacy, routing traffic via community-driven relays, and using peaq’s multi-chain IDs.
The timing of ATOR's integration with peaq is crucial, given the escalating issue of online surveillance and privacy breaches.
More than half of internet users now see online privacy as essential. As DePINs shift how industries and infrastructures operate, offering privacy without affecting user experience is critical. ATOR provides this balance for peaq's DePINs.
Saunder, an engineer at ATOR, highlighted the importance of this collaboration by stating,
“The increase in online surveillance and privacy violations demands attention. With over half the online community prioritizing privacy, DePINs must adapt without sacrificing user-friendliness. Thanks to ATOR, peaq-built DePINs can achieve this, and we’re thrilled to advance with this integration.”
Till Wendler, peaq co-founder, shared his enthusiasm, noting that,
“Secure, anonymous data transit is key to Web3's vision of a privacy-focused web. ATOR's anonymity stack is crucial for DePIN architecture, promising great value for the ecosystem.”
peaq is steering a global revolution in infrastructure, allowing people to profit from mobility, energy, and more, and integrating ATOR as a privacy measure pushes this movement ahead.
