## ⚡ 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.
|
||
|

||
|
||
- ✅ Full Haveno App for Desktop & Android (macOS, Linux, Windows)
|

## 📡 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.)
