Sentinel VPN
by Sentinel dVPN Foundation
Cosmos
Quick Fact
Sentinel is one of the first decentralized VPN networks, offering bandwidth sharing and secure internet access without relying on centralized servers.
Decentralized, Private, and Borderless Internet Access
Sentinel VPN is a decentralized virtual private network (dVPN) built on the Cosmos SDK. Unlike traditional VPNs, Sentinel is powered by a global network of nodes that anyone can join or use. Users can route their internet traffic through independently operated nodes, ensuring both privacy and censorship resistance.
A Trustless VPN Marketplace
The Sentinel protocol operates as a trustless bandwidth marketplace where providers earn crypto for sharing their internet connections, and users pay for private browsing without intermediaries. This model eliminates centralized points of failure and enables access to VPN services even in restricted or high-censorship regions.
Developer Tools and Ecosystem Integration
Sentinel is designed to be composable and open-source. Developers can build custom dVPN clients or integrate Sentinel into other privacy-centric apps. Its modular SDK and APIs make it easy to tap into its growing node infrastructure, making Sentinel a key player in the Web3 privacy stack.
