Hubert - Distributed Infrastructure for Secure Multiparty Transactions

Disclaimer: This package is under active development and APIs may change.

Introduction

Hubert provides distributed infrastructure for secure multiparty transactions, designed to support FROST threshold signature protocols. It enables distributed key-value storage using ARID (Apparently Random Identifier) addressing with multiple storage backends.

Key Features:

• ARID-based Addressing: Cryptographic identifiers that appear random but are deterministically derived
• Multiple Storage Backends: Mainline DHT, IPFS, Hybrid (DHT+IPFS), and Server modes
• Write-once Semantics: Content-addressed storage that cannot be modified once written
• Data Obfuscation: ChaCha20 encryption using ARID-derived keys
• Gordian Envelope: All data is stored as Gordian Envelope structures

Rust Reference Implementation

This TypeScript implementation is based on hubert-rust v0.5.0 (commit).
