Monolith · optional

The node.

Part of your free space, put to work for the HAL network. Optional. You decide how much, or none.

Your free space, put to work. It stores encrypted fragments of the HAL network and earns rewards. What's yours, only you can open.

01

Shared storage

You set aside part of your storage for the network. HAL users' files are encrypted, split and spread across thousands of nodes.

Encrypted fragments · erasure coding
02

No one reads what it holds

Your Monolith stores pieces it cannot decrypt: you don't see other people's data, and no one sees yours.

End-to-end encryption
03

Earn by contributing

The network rewards proven storage, uptime and transfer in HAL Coins, credited to your HAL account.

Proof of storage · rewards in HAL Coins
04

Your private vault

Your photos, notes and records are encrypted with keys from the secure element and backed up to the network. Lose your Monolith and you recover them with your phrase.

Encrypted backup · only your keys
05

Works while it charges

It serves data to the network mostly on its base, over Wi-Fi. In your pocket, it prioritizes your battery.

Node mode while charging
06

You decide how much

Choose how much space to contribute, or turn node mode off. In Vault Mode, the node disconnects along with the radios.

0 to 75% of storage

Rewards depend on network demand; earnings are not guaranteed. Storage does not use proof-of-work mining, which on a pocket device would consume more energy than it pays.
