2 min readKey summary
Freenet has been redesigned and renamed Hyphanet, with the network already running since December.
Early apps on Hyphanet include decentralized chat and CMS tools, showing the platform is active, not just experimental.
Hyphanet uses a peer-to-peer key-value network and contract-based state sync to share app data across peers.
Web apps can run in the browser, with WebAssembly contracts enabling decentralized app logic without centralized servers.
