Sheeld VPN is a decentralized proxy solution written in Rust, designed for privacy, performance, and extensibility. It leverages peer-to-peer networking and SOCKS5 tunneling to build a privacy-preserving proxy system.
- ✅ Peer discovery & messaging via [
libp2p] using Gossipsub - ✅ SOCKS5 proxy server using [
fast_socks5] - ⚙️ Built for low latency and modular extension
- 🌍 Peer-based relay routing (decentralized VPN nodes)
