What is Reverly?
Reverly is the world's first internet-free decentralized social network and communication platform. It enables people to connect, share, and transact using offline-first technologies like BLE, LoRaWAN, and mesh networking, without needing internet access.
How does Reverly work without the internet?
Reverly creates peer-to-peer mesh networks using technologies like Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Wi-Fi Direct, and LoRaWAN. Devices relay data, messages, and transactions locally. If one node has internet access, it can sync and update others, bridging offline and online networks.
Will messages be able to send over long ranges, like over cities?
Yes. Quasar Protocol will use Local Gateways to store and receive user data in decentralized storage, which can be processed end-to-end. In this way, people without internet access can still send messages over long distances, even across cities, by relying on nearby gateways to relay data.
Will people still be able to send messages using Wi-Fi or the internet?
Yes. Reverly is a hybrid super app that supports both offline and online communication. It allows users to send messages and perform transactions locally via Wi-Fi Direct, BLE, and LoRaWAN, while also providing access to online messaging and transactions when internet access is available.
Can I access online services without internet using Reverly?
Yes. Nexus Bridge lets offline users send requests for online services such as Google searches. These are processed by nearby connected nodes, and the responses are delivered back offline.
Who can benefit the most from Reverly?
Reverly is ideal for people who face high costs of internet access, those in low-connectivity regions, individuals facing surveillance or censorship, first responders, humanitarian workers, outdoor travellers, and communities affected by internet shutdowns.
What is Quasar Protocol?
Quasar Protocol is the backbone of Reverly's decentralized network, enabling secure, offline-first communication and data processing. It ensures that data can be transferred and stored in decentralized storage without relying on the internet. By utilizing local gateways and mesh networks, Quasar Protocol allows users to send messages and perform transactions even in areas with no internet access.
What is Nexus Wallet?
Nexus Wallet is the world's first offline crypto wallet. It allows secure peer-to-peer digital asset transactions between users without requiring internet connectivity.
Is Reverly secure and private?
Yes. Reverly uses Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) for secure validation, Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) for user-owned identity, and Edge Computing to process everything locally. This ensures strong privacy without central servers. Additionally, Reverly uses AES-256 encryption to protect all communications and transactions, ensuring your data is always secure.
What is Nexus Horizon?
Nexus Horizon is Reverly's decentralized social layer. It allows users to share posts, updates, and media directly through mesh networks without censorship or centralized control.
What is Nexus Connect?
Nexus Connect is an emergency communication layer that supports peer-to-peer SOS messaging and coordination in crisis or censorship- heavy environments, even without any internet access.
What is Nexus Aware?
Nexus Aware transforms Reverly into a real-time local intelligence hub by using IoT sensors in the area. It provides weather updates, traffic conditions, public transport schedules, emergency alerts, and a digital bulletin with local news and events—all accessible offline.
Who is backing Reverly?
Reverly is incubated and supported by Polygon Labs and partnered with leading innovators including ICP, Startup Grind, and Union Labs.
Is Quasar Protocol open source?
Yes. Quasar Protocol, the underlying framework powering Reverly's decentralized infrastructure, is fully open source. This enables transparent development and secure, community-driven innovation.
Will Reverly support other blockchain networks?
Yes. Reverly is chain-agnostic and designed for cross-chain compatibility. Through Nexus Bridge, it will connect with major ecosystems such as Polygon, ICP, and others.
Can developers build on Reverly?
Yes. Reverly will provide a developer SDK for building decentralized, offline-first apps that utilize its mesh communication, identity, and wallet features.
What makes Reverly suitable for disaster response?
Reverly operates independently of traditional telecom infrastructure. This makes it ideal for emergencies by allowing users to communicate, coordinate, and send SOS messages when mobile networks or the internet are unavailable.
Is communication free on Reverly?
Yes, communication on the Reverly app will be free forever. Whether you are sending messages or sharing content, there are no charges for using the platform, even when operating in offline mode.
