What is the Skywire Decentralized Internet? A Skywire Primer

An introduction to Skywire, a peer-to-peer mesh network designed to provide a decentralized alternative to traditional internet service providers.

Skywire is a new decentralized internet for the modern world. It is a peer-to-peer mesh network spanning the globe that incentivizes participation and connects people without reliance on a provider for service. Skywire is the next evolutionary step in the internet’s development and use. We want to break the chokehold that internet service providers (ISPs) have on the market by giving the power back to the people. We are doing this by providing a decentralized community-driven mesh network where users themselves will own and control the network’s infrastructure. Our goal is to provide everyone with access to fast, secure, private and reliable internet. It is time to leave ISPs as a relic of the past. Customers routinely have their browsing data tracked, stored and sold by ISPs, and at the same time experience unreliable coverage and poor customer service. Instead of relying on corporate-owned networks, the Skywire mesh network runs on widespread user-owned nodes which come together to provide the infrastructure for the network, allowing communities to power their internet access.
