Sharded, encrypted storage between friends over Yggdrasil: lend each other disk space, send files by sending a sealed stub.

About the project

Experimental Go P2P storage: files are encrypted, split into erasure-coded shards and spread across friends' machines on the Yggdrasil network; sending a file means sending a small stub holding the key.

Useful for
  • Set up a shared backup store across several mini PCs so files survive one machine failing
  • Send a file to a colleague by email by sharing only the sealed stub instead of the file
  • Run verify to check that peers still hold the shards they were given

1.4 Quiet Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 7, 2026, 15:45 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show daily stars; the line is a moving average of the available history. Short histories do not yet establish a reliable usual pace. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-07 (UTC), 14:27–15:38: 24 → 25 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +1 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 2 days old and already has 25 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Hacker News: “Sharded, encrypted storage between friends over Yggdrasil” — 22 points, 10 h ago.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
