Utilizing the Masternode network - DarkTor

One of the future goals is to turn the masternode network into a decentralized business for masternode operators. To do this well add features that improve the privacy of end users and compete with centralized businesses. Our first endeavor into this is to make a completely private tor network within Darkcoin.

The Darkcoin network will begin to offer anonymous internet access via the masternode network. As a user, all youll have to do is pay a fee for 24 hours of access. This fee will be paid to a masternode in much the same way the masternode fees are paid, using a deterministic algorithm for determining which masternode will get paid.

Theres a few benefits to running a private tor network through Darkcoin.

Sybil resistant - Due to the cost of obtaining masternodes, it will be very difficult for any one person to view all traffic.
Anonymous Payments - Users can pay anonymously for the service
Private Network - Our tor network will be internal to darkcoin only. All traffic will be paid traffic, so the cost of running the service should be profitable for the masternode operators.
Faster than tor - Tor has historically been very slow. This will be a lean version, that has much higher throughput.

As for the cost of the service were thinking $0.50 per day or something to that effect.

Were still working on the details how this will function and this isnt a feature that were absolutely set on. Were very interested to get the communitys response to see if its viable .

I think I just shit my pants.

Why rely one one VPN provider when you can use a network of a thousand of them?

Great! The power of masternodes unleached!!!

Wow, nice one!

Great work on debugging.
Pity I don't have 1000 DRK's for MN Sad
