    • Provide idle internet bandwidth to the network securely.

  2. Relay Nodes:

    • Facilitate the transfer of data within the network.

    • Ensure data integrity and efficient routing between contributor nodes and consumers.

  3. Consumer Nodes:

    • Entities or applications that utilize the shared bandwidth for secure and decentralized internet access.

    • Include businesses, developers, and end-users seeking VPN or proxy services.

  4. Validator Nodes:

    • Validate and verify network transactions, ensuring transparency and trustworthiness.

    • Operate through a blockchain consensus mechanism.
