DePIN — Satellite + Mobile Network

OPENBAND

Any device. Any network. No ISP. No walls.

Any phone, router, or Starlink terminal becomes a mesh node. Peers relay automatically. Traffic exits through VLESS + Reality — invisible to deep packet inspection.

Digital Blackout — Iran

Iran cuts the internet.
OpenBand keeps it on.

Iran has enacted over 11 major internet shutdowns since 2019 — blocking 80 million people from communication, news, and financial services. OpenBand's decentralized mesh routes around every block.

How it works

Three steps to free internet.

One device connects

Any phone on mobile data, a Starlink terminal, or a 4G router — runs OpenBand and becomes a gateway node automatically.

The mesh discovers it

Nearby devices find the gateway via UDP multicast and elect the best one by signal, battery, and hops. Zero configuration.

Traffic routes invisibly

All traffic exits through VLESS + Reality — indistinguishable from HTTPS. Iran's DPI infrastructure sees nothing to block.

Features

Built for the hardest conditions.

Stealth protocol

VLESS + Reality makes traffic indistinguishable from HTTPS. Invisible to Iran's DPI and SNI inspection systems.

Any device is a node

Phones, 4G routers, OpenWRT devices, Starlink terminals. If it has internet it can be a gateway. Phase 5 adds router package.

Self-healing mesh

Nodes elect a gateway in under 300 ms. When one drops, failover completes in under 2 seconds. No single point of failure.

WireGuard encrypted

Phase 4 replaces TCP relay with WireGuard. All mesh traffic encrypted end-to-end with ChaCha20-Poly1305.

Zero logs

No registration. No phone number. No email. No connection history. We cannot share what we do not store.

Earn USDC

Run a relay node and earn USDC on Base L2 for every GB forwarded. Proof of Connectivity verified on-chain.

Firmware

Hardware node firmware.

Turn any supported device into a permanent mesh node. Flash the firmware, power it on. No configuration required.

DePIN · Base L2

Run a relay. Get paid in USDC.

Every gigabyte you forward earns USDC, automatically settled on Base L2. Proof of Connectivity is cryptographically verified.

Run the app

Enable relay mode. No technical knowledge needed.

Forward traffic

Your device relays encrypted packets for nearby mesh users.

Earn automatically

USDC rewards settle on Base L2 based on verified data relayed.
