The KelVPN team started developing KelVPN in 2019. It is the first deanon-proof, quantum-safe decentralized VPN running in production, powered by the Cellframe Network. For users, KelVPN aims to provide one-click access to stronger privacy and security, along with fast performance that supports up to 8k+ video streaming.
KelVPN - Key Features
Security - In the crowded online security and privacy market, KelVPN differentiates itself by using Cellframe’s modern post-quantum encryption, which is designed to deliver the highest level of protection for KelVPN users even as quantum computing advances toward a stage of risk for most encryption methods.
Privacy - Evidence has shown that some VPNs sell user data to corporations. KelVPN addresses privacy concerns by using decentralization through operation on top of Cellframe’s decentralized network, where traffic is spread across different nodes. Without a single central point of control, KelVPN is positioned so it can’t collect logs, spy, or sell your data.
Performance - Traditional VPNs can see reduced network quality when many users compete for bandwidth on a single server. KelVPN instead uses multiple nodes to expand available bandwidth, routing traffic through the node network for a smoother process and improved service quality.
Interoperability - Because KelVPN is interoperable, it can support a range of use cases both inside and outside the Cellframe ecosystem. The KelVPN team’s main goal is to go beyond VPN functionality and grow it into a privacy hub with cross-chain operability.
KEL Token Utility
Payment: after Cellframe’s mainnet launch, the KEL token can be staked in a conditioned transaction that is used during your KelVPN usage.
Governance: KEL token holders will be able to vote on proposals.
