🤩 Exciting news! I'm ready to share the project I've been working on for the past 2 months. ✨ Wormhole – the fastest way to send files ✨ Wormhole lets you share files with end-to-end encryption and it's super fast. Our #1 goal was speed – you should be able to get a link to send in less than 2 seconds. Everything is end-to-end encrypted and the server never knows anything about your files. It supports instant streaming (no need to wait for your files to upload to the cloud before you can send the link to your recipient), super fast P2P transfer over local networks, and 24 hour file hosting so the link keeps working even after you close the site. Give it a shot and please tell me what you think! Send a file in 2 seconds: https://wormhole.app Read our manifesto: https://wormhole.app/about Read our security design: https://wormhole.app/security

@feross God I wish this was open source. Been looking for something like this for a while that’s white label.

The product looks great, but I was wondering ... How are you planning on monetizing it?

@ferminrp We're planning to introduce a Pro plan for sending extremely large files.

@ferminrp @feross another feature idea for Pro would be extended lifetime for the files (or even custom)

@ferminrp @giuseppegurgone Great suggestion, we'll add it to the list.

@ferminrp @giuseppegurgone @feross might be good to include white label in the pro plan. This looks like a good solution for a problem that my company is facing.

@ferminrp @giuseppegurgone @darren_t_jansen Can you send me an email to (my first name AT my first name DOT org) with information about what problem your company is trying to solve? Thanks!

Wow, this looks amazing!! How do you plan on making sure that it doesn't go the same way as Firefox Send did? (also, that animation when you upload is sooo cool 😍)
It Just Works ™
@booligoosh Yeah, I love the animation too ✨

@booligoosh I think Firefox Send shut down because of abuse. We'll deal with that when it becomes an issue. But we have some ideas. We'll add a "Report" button which allows the reporter to send us the bad files for analysis and ban IPs which continually send reported files. More speculatively, we can include client-side malware scanning and use fancy crypto to attest to the server that the files have passed the scan before we authorize upload. Worst case if it came down to it, we could require an account to send files, but we want to avoid that if we can. End-to-end encrypted messaging apps like Signal manage to fight abuse without access to their user's messages, so we know there must be a way.
