Contribute your bandwidth to the Anyone Network and earn passive tokens in real time!
From running an Anyone Router device, using your own compute or configuring a virtual machine, there are many ways to earn while being part of the fastest onion routing network in the world!
Anyone Router hardware are home-friendly devices specifically configured for the Anyone Network. They are designed to run as a relay without requiring technical knowledge.
Find out more about how running a relay secures the internet for thousands of users around the world and how it rewards you!
Anyone Relays form part of onion routing circuits. Your device will receive encrypted packets from the previous node, and forward them through the network, fragmenting user data among multiple nodes for maximum privacy. Most nodes are 'middle' nodes, meaning you only interact with other nodes and not the wider internet.
Every Anyone Relay is tied to an Ethereum wallet. Once you specify it on your relay, you can see all your relays and their earnings on our decentralized dashboard. After configuring a relay, head to the dashboard to claim it and start earning.
Unlike tradtional crypto mining, which needs huge computing power and energy, the Anyone Network relies on diverse node operators contributing their home bandwidth. This makes Anyone a much more accessible way to earn passive crypto tokens.
Your rewards are primarily based on your 'observed bandwidth', a function of your internet uplink/downlink speeds that are tested by bandwidth authorities.
10% of tokens, worth over 10M USD, are allocated to DePIN rewards - one of the largest pools! These tokens ensure base rewards for all relays, and are supplemented by usage fees.
56% of all rewards are allocated to all active relays based on observed bandwidth. A relay's observed bandwidth ramps up over the first 56 days that it is active.

Within the hardware pool, half the rewards are linked specifically to uptime versus just bandwidth.

Exit Relays are critical to the network - these are the nodes that eventually forward your traffic to the destination site. Exit relays should only run by confident operators, and not from most people's homes. Exit relays earn from a 10% bonus pool.

Those running an Anyone Router Hardware are entitled to earn from a hardware-only pool, worth 20% of rewards, which competes only with other official hardware.

Multiple relays run by the same operator are known as relay families. By accurately declaring families, you earn a small boost in the reward for all your relays. In addition, any delegated staking towards your family grants you 5% of their earnings.
Introducing the geolocation multiplier! The world is divided into 2000km^2 hexes, with relays in unique locations due to get a small reward boost, while relays in heavily populated hexes have their rewards curtailed.
