Lhdns – A Ledger-Based, Privacy-Preserving Decentralized Naming System

Hacker News

LHDNS (Ledger-based Hashed Decentralized Naming System) is a next-generation alternative to DNS — designed to provide censorship resistance, privacy, and cryptographic accountability for name resolution. It replaces central trust roots with an ephemeral, ledger-backed system that uses rotating hash-tokens, decentralized gossip propagation, and short-lived identifiers instead of static records. Every query is unlinkable, every service is verifiable, and no single entity controls the namespace. Key Features: - Ledger-based resolution with cryptographic proofs - Ephemeral state (no permanent name mappings) - End-to-end privacy via onion routing and cover traffic - Sybil resistance through staking + adaptive PoW - Compatibility layer with existing DNS (via gateways) Whitepaper, annexes, and technical modules: → https://github.com/twincodesworld/LHDNS Goal: to make global name resolution private, verifiable, and censorship-resistant — for everyone. Feedback and collaboration welcome.
