Reading the Tor consensus…

MIXNET.
Mined by the
Tor network.

Every hour Tor publishes who is carrying the world's private traffic. Every new relay that stays up for 72 hours mines MIXNET. Tor today, a mixnet tomorrow.

01 · The network, right now

Thousands of volunteers carry the world's private traffic.

Each dot in the rings above is a real Tor relay from the latest consensus: guards on the inside, middle relays, exits on the outside. Bigger dots carry more bandwidth.

Where the relays are

Relays per country, latest consensus.

Why it matters

A Tor circuit hops through three relays run by different people in different countries. No single relay knows both who you are and what you asked for. The more relays, the more countries, the harder it is to watch.

That growth is what MIXNET measures. Not price, not hype: the number of people choosing to carry other people's privacy.

02 · The rule

One consensus an hour. New relays that survive mine.

Tor's directory authorities publish a new consensus every hour: the signed list of every relay in the network. Each consensus is one MIXNET round.

A relay that joins Tor and is listed in every hourly consensus for the next 72 hours, with no gaps, scores work in the round its 72 hours run out. Relays that blink off, or were already in Tor during the 20 hours before, score nothing.

Each round is signed by the oracle with a hash of the 93 consensus files it scored. Tor publishes every consensus in its public archive (CollecTor), so anyone can recompute any round. The live numbers on this page come from Onionoo and can differ slightly from the settled rounds.

03 · Why a mixnet

Private AI already runs over Tor. Tor is only the first layer.

People are now routing their AI over Tor: a fresh circuit for every conversation, random cover traffic so requests can't be picked out, prompts rewritten by a local model before they leave the machine, and payments through zero-knowledge APIs that don't reveal who paid.

It works, but Tor has a known limit: a provider that colludes with your guard relay can match the timing of what goes in and what comes out. The answer is a mixnet, a network that mixes messages with constant cover traffic so timing reveals nothing.

MIXNET is mined by the network we have today, and named after the one we need next.

L1
Sandbox. The agent runs boxed in, and every byte it sends goes through Tor.
L2
Fresh circuits. Each conversation gets its own path through three relays.
L3
Cover traffic. Random requests hide the real ones.
L4
Local rewriting. A local model rewrites the prompt so its style doesn't identify you.
L5
Zero-knowledge payment. You pay for the API without your payment linking back to you.
L6
Mixnet. Constant cover traffic, so even timing can't be matched. Not built yet.

Launch liquidity · not added yet

Trading runs on a Uniswap v4 pool with a launch fee that starts at 85% to stop sniper bots and falls to 1% within 20 minutes. Fees go to the project wallet. Mining is paused until the oracle is live.

What you are trusting

  • The oracle. It reads the public Tor consensus and signs each round. It can't mint more than the rule and the cap allow, and every round can be checked against Tor's archive.
  • The miner is fixed. The token binds its miner once; nobody, including the deployer, can ever replace it.
  • The deployer can rotate the oracle key, change the reward receiver until it is locked, and pause mining.
  • The launch liquidity will be burned to 0x…dEaD when the pool is created, so nobody can remove it.
  • The pool fee goes to the project wallet. It is fixed in the hook (85% at open, 1% after 20 minutes) and cannot be changed.
  • Nothing else. No blacklist, no upgrades, no supply above 1,000,000,000.
05 · Trade

Trading opens at launch.

Trade here, straight against the MIXNET launch pool on Uniswap v4. The Uniswap app does not route through pools with a launch hook, so use this page or a tool that supports v4 hooks.

The pool and its liquidity are not created yet. Do not buy MIXNET anywhere else.
