We are focused with having a network that really focuses on the "end-to-end" principal of IP - that is to say that if you want to run something and make it available to other then you won't have to worry about NAT-traversal, port forwarding, lack of raw IP support and all the other non-sense that IPv4 created (due to lack of addresses).

 ## Our goals
 
 The network has a few goals that we always want to maintain as to not lose our allure:
