Alias

Latest release Latest develop build Discord Reddit Build Status Master Build Status Develop

Alias is a Secure Proof-of-Stake (PoSv3) Network with Anonymous Transaction Capability.

Alias utilizes a range of proven cryptographic techniques to achieve un-linkable, un-traceable and anonymous transactions on its underlaying blockchain and also protects the users identity by running all the network nodes as Tor hidden services.

Key Privacy Technology

Anonymous token creation: Through the use of dual key stealth technology, Alias provides the ability to generate ‘private coins’ by consuming 'public coins'. Private coins can then be sent through an implementation of ring signatures based on the Cryptonote protocol to eliminate any transaction history. The wallet offers the opportunity to transfer your balance between public coins and private coins. We are currently working on improving this technology for better functionality and privacy.

Built in Tor: The Alias software offers a full integration of Tor so that the Alias client runs exclusively as a Tor hidden service using a .onion address to connect to other clients in the network. Your real IP address is therefore protected at all times.
