The idea for MuWire wasn’t new for Balevsky, who always had plans to develop an anonymous file-sharing tool. In recent years he also contributed to the Invisible Internet Project (I2P), which provides a Tor-like anonymity layer for file-sharing. Eventually, it all came together. “Even though MuWire users are anonymous, they hide behind MuWire identities which are cryptographically strong and enforced by the I2P protocol. This opened the door to more features like Web Of Trust, File Feeds (similar to RSS) and chat,” Balevsky tells us.
