NESS

PrivateNess Network provides network obfuscation and data security services for end-users and enterprise-level clients.

UNSTOPPABLE HOSTING

PrivateNess Network provides network obfuscation and data security services for end-users and enterprise-level clients. We provide you easy access to decentralised network protocols such as DNS, SSL and IPFS storage that allow for uncensorable website and web app hosting.

We are a globally positioned community project with a decentralised, virtual governance concept. As a crypto/blockchain project with its own cryptocurrencies we have created a unique zero-emission, circular economy around our tokens NESS and NESS COIN HOURS (NCH).

DECENTRALIZED NETWORK PROTOCOLS

ZERO EMISSION, CIRCULAR ECONOMY

RELIABLE ENCRYPTION

Ultra-high Entropy Pseudo Random Numbers Generator

NEXT GENERATION VERIFIABLE RANDOM FUNCTION

The strength of any encryption depends on the source of randomness with which the seed keys have been created. If the source of randomness is insufficient or compromised, the encryption is unsafe. Our blockchain agnostic VRF service (Verifiable Random Function) is powered by our state-of-the-art Ultra-High Entropy Pseudo Random Number Generator (UHE-PRNG) which operates at 1536 bits of internal state entropy.

Current Random Number Generators which are widely used provide 128 bits of state entropy. We over-deliver by magnitudes and purposefully with future use cases in mind, specifically open metaverses and the DeFi sector.

SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY

Our services are embedded in a zero emission and circular economy of our own making. We have two crypto currencies of our own, NESS and our fuel token NESS COIN HOURS (NCH). To gain access to our services, you need to acquire NESS and hold it in its native wallet. You will no be spending the NESS you own to gain access to our services:
Your NESS holdings will mint NESS COIN HOURS at a ratio 1:1 for every hour you hold it in your wallet, you pay for services in NCH. There is no lock-up period for the NESS you hold, you can sell it at any time. We have built our ecosystem with affordability, sustainability and corruption resistance in mind. There is no KYC (Know-Your-Customer) program in our ecosystem, we do not need to know who you are and you do not need to interact with us.

COIN HOURS:
TOKENIZED TIME

NO KYC

Tokenomics

We have set the initial buyback ratio of NCH:NESS to 200.000:1. This means that for every 200.000 NCH 1.0 you will receive 1 NESS. However this ratio decreases every two weeks once the program has started. The buyback program ends after the 12th week.

NESS / ETH

Available pairs on XBTS:
USDT / ETH / BTC / BTS / STH / RUB

HOW TO OPEN A DESKTOP WEB WALLET

For the most up-to-date information and documentation of the development see our GitBook: https://privateness-network.gitbook.io/privateness-network
...and our main developers blog: https://ness-main-dev.medium.com - Don't worry: We will simplify the installation of our desktop wallets, we're on it.

Step by step LINUX

1. Install dependencies
DEBIAN: sudo apt install python golang git make -y
ARCH: sudo pacman -S python golang git make -y

2. Clone from GitHub and run the client. Three commands:
git clone https://github.com/ness-network/ness

cd ness/

sudo go run cmd/privateness/privateness.go -disable-pex -log-level=debug -launch-browser=true -enable-all-api-sets=true -gui-dir="ness/src/gui/static/" -enable-gui=true

3. A new browser tab opens with a Skycoin wallet tab.
Create a wallet or enter your seed phrase. Done!
If it doesn't, open it manually in your browser: http://127.0.0.1:6660/#/wallets
You end the script by pressing Ctrl+C in your terminal.

Step by step (WINDOWS)

1. Install dependencies
GoLang: https://go.dev/dl / Cmake: https://cmake.org/download / GitHub: https://git-scm.com

After GitHub Installation is done, set up a user by typing git init in the shell that has opened. Then close the shell. For reference, read the process in detail here: https://golangdocs.com/install-go-windows

2. Open a new GIT CMD terminal via your start menu. Type the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/ness-network/ness

cd ness/

go run cmd/privateness/privateness.go -disable-pex -log-level=debug -launch-browser=true -enable-all-api-sets=true -gui-dir="ness/src/gui/static/" -enable-gui=true

3. A new browser tab opens with a Skycoin wallet tab.
Create a wallet or enter your seed phrase. Done!
If it doesn't, open it manually in your browser: http://127.0.0.1:6660/#/wallets
You end the script by pressing Ctrl+C in your terminal.

Once you have completed all steps, you should see lines similar to these in your terminal and the PrivateNess wallet tab in your browser:
