# 🌐Overview

### The Next Internet Layer — Private, Resilient, and Powered by Zcash

Zor is the next generation of the Internet’s privacy and routing layer — a decentralized mixnet built on zero-knowledge proofs and Zcash’s shielded payments.

It looks and feels like a VPN. But under the surface, every packet is onion-encrypted, every relay must prove it forwarded data honestly, and every transaction happens privately inside a hardware-secured vault.

No trust. No central authority. Just **verifiable privacy** that anyone can use, build on, or earn from.
