Epic Server (Node) Tor Hidden Service Proof of Concept: Enabling Secure Interaction with EpicCash #136

Closed claude-elwood-shannon closed 4 months ago

I'm excited to propose a Proof of Concept (PoC) project to explore the feasibility of configuring Epic Server (Node) to interact with the EpicCash network behind a Tor hidden service. This PoC aims to identify the challenges and potential solutions for achieving this configuration.

If successful, we'll prepare a comprehensive guide document that can be used as a reference by anyone interested in setting up their own Epic Server (Node) instance as a Tor hidden service. The guide will include step-by-step instructions, best practices, and any necessary technical details.

Conversely, if we encounter difficulties configuring the Epic Server (Node) as a Tor hidden service, we'll analyze the necessary steps to facilitate this mode of operation. This might involve modifications to the Epic Server (Node) software or exploring alternative solutions.

To further enhance the PoC's value, we invite any experienced users of Epic Server (Node) who have previously set up their instances as Tor hidden services to participate and share their experiences and results. Their insights will help refine our understanding of the challenges and potential solutions.

Thank you for considering this proposal! I'm confident that a successful PoC will pave the way for the widespread adoption of Epic Server (Node) as a Tor hidden service, enabling users to interact with the EpicCash network in a secure and private manner.

Best regards,
