OPENENET-MS01: MoneroSpace Decentralized Satellite Network

Proposal ID: OPENENET-MS01

1. Project Overview

1.1 Core Objectives

MoneroSpace aims to build a decentralized censorship-resistant satellite communication network through open-source hardware and encryption protocols, achieving:

  • Global Ubiquitous Access: Providing Monero transaction channels for areas without terrestrial networks (e.g., oceans, polar regions) and censored regions (e.g., Iran, Syria).
  • Physical-Layer Censorship Resistance: Bypassing internet blockades using low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites to ensure independent transaction broadcasting.
  • Community-Driven Ecosystem: Open-sourcing satellite hardware designs and communication protocols to enable third-party node deployment.

1.2 Core Values

Dimension Innovation Contribution to Monero Ecosystem
Technical Laser+RF hybrid communication, radiation-hardened full-node design Enhances network redundancy against 51% attacks and geographic blockades
Compliance Neutral-region ground station deployment, ITU spectrum compliance Meets data privacy and international telecommunication regulations
Economic Satellite node mining incentives, transaction fee sharing model Establishes a sustainable decentralized infrastructure economy

  • User Access:
    • Terminal modification: Compatible with Starlink Dish, integrated with radiation-hardened encryption module (ChaCha20-Poly1305).
    • Dynamic frequency hopping: 128 frequency points, 10-second interval, with satellite-side frequency prediction (45% improved anti-jamming success rate).
  • Inter-Satellite Communication:
    • Laser link: Randomly selects 2 neighbors for forwarding, adds 30% dummy transactions to obfuscate paths (anonymity set expanded 5x).
    • RF link: DVB-S2X standard, AES-256-GCM encryption, emergency channel for laser outages (latency < 500ms).
  • Ground Access:
    • Ground stations in Switzerland (Zug) and Iceland (Reykjavik), each with 5 radiation-hardened servers storing Monero full nodes.
    • Tor integration: 3-hop Tor relay for mainnet access, 99.9% node IP anonymity.

  • Core Components:
    • Consensus layer: Adapted for RandomX algorithm, allowing satellite nodes to mine (hash rate ≤5% to avoid centralization).
    • Network layer: Extended Dandelion++ protocol with "space stem phase" (3-5 hop satellite forwarding).
    • Storage layer: Differential synchronization (stores last 3 years of blocks), cold-hot data separation for radiation-hardened eMMC.
