Zen and design goals

Why Reticulum exists: permissionless networks, medium agnosticism, and encryption by default.

Motivation

Motivation

Reticulum targets reliable, secure communication without large amounts of coordination or centralised trust. Joining should not require gatekeepers.

  • Built for long-range and minimal-infrastructure digital communication
  • Aims to reduce central control, censorship leverage, and barrier to entry
  • Medium agnostic: radio, serial, Ethernet, WiFi, LoRa, and other digital carriers

Open source

Availability, security, and transparency

Medium agnostic

Radio, serial, Ethernet, WiFi, LoRa, and more

Encryption by default
