Substratum (SUB)

Substratum (SUB) is an open-source network that aims to create a free and fair internet for everyone by allowing individuals to allocate their spare computing resources. It functions as the foundation of the decentralized web, enabling users to securely deliver content without the need for VPN or Tor. Through the Substratum network, individuals who run a Substratum Node receive cryptocurrency payments for serving content, making it easy to participate and contribute to building a more open internet.

The Substratum Network is a global collection of nodes that facilitate the secure delivery of content. Hosts can use Substratum Host to host websites or applications, compensating network users for serving content. Substratum Nodes forward content from hosts to web users, earning cryptocurrency rewards for their contribution. Any end web user can view Substratum-hosted content in their regular web browser without encountering censorship blocks, allowing for unrestricted access to information.

To enable its functionalities, Substratum utilizes a range of technology and features such as developer tools, artificial intelligence, cryptography, and compression algorithms. Its advanced compression technology ensures secure data transmission, while optimal network intelligence selects the most suitable node for content delivery. Substrate, the cryptocurrency used within the Substratum Network, powers its decentralized web and aims to simplify the adoption process by utilizing whole numbers with two decimal places, similar to dollars and cents.
