GutsDecentralized Code Collaboration

Why Guts? ​

Modern code hosting platforms are centralized points of failure. A single company's decision can affect millions of developers. Repositories get removed, accounts get banned, and geographic restrictions limit global collaboration.

Guts changes this. By building on Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus and peer-to-peer networking, Guts creates code collaboration infrastructure that:

• Can't be taken down - No central server means no single point of failure
• Can't be censored - Distributed consensus prevents arbitrary removal
• Can't be controlled - No single entity owns the network
