Overview

What EVERYNTH is, and the one idea behind it: nobody holds the money or the goods.

What EVERYNTH is#

EVERYNTH is a marketplace on Solana for digital products: datasets, research, source code, API keys, private community links, access to a GitHub repository, or access to an app you host yourself. Creators launch a product with a price in SOL; buyers pay wallet-to-wallet and receive the product on their own device.

Two things make it different from a normal marketplace:

  • The platform never holds the money. A purchase is one Solana transaction with two plain transfers: 95% to the creator, 5% to the treasury. There is no escrow, no smart contract of ours, nothing that can be paused or drained.
  • The platform never sees the goods in the clear. Files and secrets are encrypted in the creator's browser before upload. Storage only ever holds ciphertext. Decryption happens on the buyer's device after the chain confirms payment.

One purchase, end to end#

  1. A creator launches a product. The content is encrypted locally and uploaded; the key is stored wrapped.
  2. A buyer connects their wallet (a free signature, no funds move) and presses Buy.
  3. The server freezes the payout terms for this order and mints a unique reference key.
  4. The buyer's wallet sends one transaction: two transfers plus the reference.
  5. The server fetches the confirmed transaction and checks the balances that changed.
  6. The buyer's browser receives the key and the ciphertext and decrypts. Done.

The details of each step are in Payments and Encryption.
