(Beautiful, encrypted, private swarms)
Aged in Secrecy
BitTorrent, reimagined for privacy. Share files, sync state, replicate databases—all within webs of trust.
Get in TouchAll traffic encrypted with Noise_XX protocol and ChaCha20-Poly1305. Your data is unreadable to anyone except intended recipients.
Keys ratchet every 1000 messages or 10 minutes. Even if current keys are compromised, past traffic remains protected.
Cryptographically verified membership. Only invited members can join your private sharing groups.
Fixed-size cells prevent traffic analysis. All messages look the same size, making pattern detection impossible.
Pure peer-to-peer architecture. No servers to subpoena, no logs to hand over, no single point of failure.
Tit-for-tat sharing incentives without tokens. Better upload = faster downloads. Popular content self-scales.
Start a private sharing group. You become the admin with control over who can join.
Generate cryptographic invite links. Only people you invite can join your context.
Add files to share. Members discover and download from each other—fully encrypted.
Stream, share, and sync—faster as your swarm grows. Bandwidth scales with your network.

MojoNation pioneered encrypted P2P in 2000 but failed on economics. Tahoe-LAFS chose security over scale. SHOYU delivers both—BitTorrent's efficiency with WireGuard-grade cryptography and invite-only membership.
Shoyu Protocol is currently in development. Follow us for updates on our progress and launch announcements.
