Overview

SpaceRouter Proxy

A decentralized residential proxy network powered by the Spacecoin community.

SpaceRouter Proxy routes web traffic through residential connections contributed by people around the world. Consumers send proxy requests to a single gateway and reach websites with real, geo-targeted residential IPs. Providers run a small app at home, earn SPACE for the bandwidth they share, and stake SPACE to qualify.

The Gateway picks a healthy Provider that matches your routing preferences (region, IP type), opens a tunnel, and relays traffic. Payment for the bandwidth is settled by signed on-chain receipt automatically.

Two ways to participate

I want to use the proxy — Send requests through SpaceRouter Proxy from your app, script, or browser. Pay with SPACE on-chain — deposit once, pay per request.

I want to run a Provider — Share your home connection, stake SPACE, and earn rewards for serving traffic.

What's in v1.5.0

• Pay with SPACE — Consumers deposit SPACE into the on-chain escrow and pay per request, with no subscription.

• Earnings dashboard — Providers see every receipt, claim history, and lifetime earnings inside the app.

• Auto-claim — Providers can opt in to automatic on-chain settlement when earnings cross a threshold.

• Unified config path — All platforms now use ~/.spacerouter/ for keys, settings, and receipts.
