ShadowVault
ShadowVault is your personal, private, and permissionless file vault. It lets you upload, store, and share files securely using decentralized infrastructure β with full encryption and no central authority.
βIf someone can access your files without your key β you donβt own them. ShadowVault changes that.β
𧨠Why It Matters
Big cloud platforms (Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud) track and index your files. They:
Scan content for profiling or ads
Comply with censorship requests
Can be hacked, subpoenaed, or shut down
With ShadowVault, only you hold the decryption key. No one β not even 0xShadow β can access your files.
π§ How It Works
π You upload a file through ShadowVault
𧬠Itβs encrypted client-side (in your browser)
π The encrypted file is stored on a decentralized network
π You receive a unique access link + decryption key
π€ Only someone with the key can unlock the file
π Features
π End-to-end encryption
Zero-knowledge storage β even we canβt see your files
π Decentralized hosting
No single point of failure
β³ Time-limited links
Auto-expire after X days or downloads
π§Ύ No login required
Share files anonymously
π Lightweight preview
Inline previews for images, text, and PDFs
π§± Permission rules
Limit who can download, how many times, or when
π Share Example
You get a link like this:
https://vault.0xshadow.online/view/abc123#decryption-key-456xyz
Anyone with the link + key can view/download. Without it, the file is impossible to decrypt β even with supercomputers.
𧬠Use Case Scenarios
π¨βπΌ Share sensitive documents securely (KYC, legal, business deals)
π΅οΈ Journalist sending encrypted leaks or reports
πΌ DAO or Web3 team sharing internal alpha without Google Drive
π¨ Creators storing media they donβt want pirated or copied
β οΈ Whistleblowers and activists distributing uncensorable truth
π§ͺ Advanced Capabilities (Coming Soon)
π Multi-party sharing with split keys
πͺ Optional tipping to unlock premium content
π€ Encrypted backup for private wallets, notes, and seed phrases
π Important:
Lose the key β lose the file. ShadowVault does not store your key. Your data = your responsibility = your power.
