🛡️ Zor Browser
Privacy by default. Verified by design.
Zor Browser is the official gateway to the Zor Network — a next-generation privacy layer built on mixnets, zero-knowledge proofs, and Zcash’s shielded payments. It looks and feels like a modern browser, but under the hood, it verifies every relay, funds every route, and keeps every byte of data private by design.
🌐 What It Is
Zor Browser is a Chromium-based browser embedded with the Zor Core — a background service that connects you directly to the Zor mixnet. There’s no manual setup, no configuration files, no wallet popups.
When you open Zor Browser:
It automatically connects to the mixnet through 3–20 random relays.
It funds a private vault using shielded ZEC from your local wallet.
It begins routing your traffic through encrypted hops, verifying each relay with zk-proofs.
As you browse, micro-payments flow privately to each verified relay.
Everything happens transparently and verifiably — privacy that just works.
🔒 Core Features
🧅 Mixnet Auto-Routing
All requests are wrapped in onion layers and passed through random relays. If any hop fails, the browser reroutes automatically using encrypted recovery capsules. You stay connected — always.
💰 Integrated Shielded Wallet
Zor Browser includes a built-in Zcash wallet for shielded payments. It automatically funds your vault and pays micro-fees per session — invisible to the user, private on-chain, auditable only by you.
🧠 Proof-of-Forwarding Verification
Each relay you pass through generates a zk-proof that it forwarded your data correctly. If the proof checks out, it’s paid instantly in ZEC. If not, it’s ignored. No proof = no reward.
🪪 ZCert Authentication
When visiting .zor sites, Zor Browser checks a ZCert — a hardware-attested certificate that proves the service is running in a verified enclave.
It’s the Zor version of HTTPS — but verified by cryptography, not corporations.
