Orchid Protocol OXT

The Orchid Protocol is a decentralized marketplace that enables an onion routing network incentivized by OXT (the native cryptocurrency of Orchid) and a multi-hop VPN client. It is built on the belief that privacy and freedom are one and the same. Orchid's mission is to provide privacy as a human right. Providers on Orchid run the Orchid server, which accepts connection requests and provides services in exchange for immediate payment through the nanopayment system. The protocol also incorporates a new VPN protocol developed to work with nanopayments for faster and more secure payments. All of Orchid's code is open source and available on GitHub for developers and curious parties to explore.

Orchid Protocol is unique compared to other cryptocurrencies because it is not just a cryptocurrency, but also a decentralized marketplace for VPN services. It combines the use of onion routing, a multi-hop VPN client, and nanopayments to provide privacy and internet freedom to its users. The protocol allows users to connect to VPN servers and pay for their services in a decentralized and efficient manner. This combination of privacy-focused technology and a marketplace for VPN services sets Orchid apart from other cryptocurrencies that primarily focus on financial transactions.
