+## ⚡ What Is Haveno?
+
+**Haveno** is a free, open-source peer-to-peer exchange platform for Monero (XMR) and other privacy-focused assets. Built on top of Tor for anonymity, it allows users to trade securely without exposing their identity, IP address, or relying on central servers.
+
+We are now entering a **new phase of development** — expanding Haveno’s decentralized trading engine to support a full **decentralized marketplace**, enabling the secure trading of physical and digital items via onion-routed infrastructure.
+
+> Think Monero + eBay, but with no centralized control, and fully private.
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Project Highlights
+
+- ✅ Full Haveno App for Desktop & Android (macOS, Linux, Windows)
+- ✅ gRPC over Tor SOCKS5 tunnel support
+- ✅ Encrypted database & AES SharedPreferences
+- ✅ Cross-platform Dart SDK
+- ✅ Docker deployment support
+- ✅ Fluent UI and secure chat
+- ✅ **Upcoming: decentralized item trading with multisig escrow**
+- ✅ **Upcoming: decentralized chat messaging system, no central servers. Secure, private and simple to use.**

+## 📡 Network & Federation
+
+The Haveno network is fully decentralized but supports **federated networks** (similar to Matrix or Mastodon). You can either join existing Haveno networks or host your own.
+
+Anyone can contribute from developers, advocates, and sysadmins to:
+- Deploy their own network
+- Become arbitrators
+- Operate price feeds
+- Collect trade fees **legally** (we do not condone or support in any way the use of our software fo illict activity in any any juridication where it is not legally permitted.)
