Mostro: Bitcoin P2P without single point of failure
summary
Mostro is a prototype that layers Bitcoin over censorship-resistant platforms to enable KYC-free P2P trading and remove any single point of failure, motivated by the claim that 72% of the world lives under authoritarianism. The system uses on-chain settlement plus off-chain discovery and messaging to avoid custodial intermediaries, demonstrates a working end-to-end trade flow in a live demo, and reports no central chokepoint exposed during testing.
