VeilNet is an ephemeral, secure overlay network built with Pion WebRTC and Cloudflare CIRCLE (ML-based KEM). It forms a ToR-like anonymous relay network — without publicly visible relay nodes, eliminating time-correlation attacks.

Unlike Tailscale (and similar mesh VPNs) that depend on public coordination servers for both authentication and routing (e.g., DERP, control plane), VeilNet’s routing and encryption are fully decentralized and local. The only public infrastructure is the Guardian API server for authentication. Once connected, routing is peer-to-peer, powered by distributed dynamic programming combined with reinforcement learning — no metadata exposure.

It delivers full Layer 3 TUN networking with the WireGuard driver, supporting both personal VPN use and site-to-site overlays. Connections are ephemeral, post-quantum secure, and resistant to metadata leaks and correlation attacks.

VeilNet Portal (the connector node) runs on Docker and Kubernetes.

Clients available for Windows and Android, with Linux coming this weekend.

Now in early access — for individuals, hackers, and teams who value privacy beyond what conventional VPNs or mesh networks offer.

VeilNet runs on a simple idea: share to earn, connect to use. The MP Credit System isn’t about counting packets — it’s about connection time. The longer your node stays online and available to relay for others, the more credits you earn. You spend those credits when you join the Veil to route your own traffic. It’s fair, transparent, and fully decentralized. No tokens, no coins, no blockchain — just time for time. Want to stay anonymous but can’t run a node? VeilNet does offer subscriptions as an alternative. The fund will be used for paying infrastructure and daily operations. Sadly, server and human do run on air......

Just to further clarify, VeilNet use the pure WireGuard TUN interface, doesn't use its VPN protocol or encryption. :)

So it is not like how Tailscale works, simply sorting out the WireGuard configuration for you.

VeilNet has no routing table or peer list. Each destination has its own circuit created on-demand, dissolved when not needed. The number of hops could be any where between 2 to infinite. :)
