***Please Know!** Reticulum is transitioning to 128-bit address space. The code currently in the master branch is incompatible with the latest release, version 0.3.8. The next release of Reticulum, version 0.3.9, will bring the released version up to compatibility with the source code in this repository. Reticulum version 0.3.9 will not be compatible with any prior releases. Please transition your systems accordingly.*
Reticulum is the cryptography-based networking stack for wide-area networks built on readily available hardware. It can operate even with very high latency and extremely low bandwidth. Reticulum allows you to build wide-area networks with off-the-shelf tools, and offers end-to-end encryption and connectivity, initiator anonymity, autoconfiguring cryptographically backed multi-hop transport, efficient addressing, unforgeable delivery acknowledgements and more.
The vision of Reticulum is to allow anyone to be their own network operator, and to make it cheap and easy to cover vast areas with a myriad of independent, interconnectable and autonomous networks. Reticulum **is not** *one* network. It is **a tool** for building *thousands of networks*. Networks without kill-switches, surveillance, censorship and control. Networks that can freely interoperate, associate and disassociate with each other, and require no central oversight. Networks for human beings. *Networks for the people*.
