What is Casbah? Why are we making this? What is our mission?
Casbah is a hyperculture: an archipelago of centerless cultures, each independent and immortal, on one technical platform. Casbah is not a social network. Casbah is a permissionless network of mutually noninterfering social networks.
Every Casbah culture is its own decentralized network on top of
Azimuth is a self-sovereign identity platform on Ethereum: a blockchain PKI. Azimuth is designed to work well with Arvo, but Azimuth does not depend on Arvo.
Each Azimuth identity ("point" or "address") is six things: a
memorable name, a cryptographic identity, a web login flow, a
network endpoint, a graphic sigil, and an HTTPS-signed DNS domain
(point.urbit.org).
Urbit is a new decentralized global computing infrastructure. Urbit is three layers: a continent (Azimuth), a computer (Arvo), and a civilization (Casbah).
To oversimplify: Casbah is a decentralized social network between Arvo servers with Azimuth addresses.
What is the actual status of these things?
It's important not to ignore the power of the Azimuth layer alone. Azimuth gives us 4 billion secure, convenient, transferable, cryptographically self-sovereign network endpoints.
Once two computers have secure names and secure keys, it's almost impossible to keep them from exchanging packets. Once names are scarce, it's straightforward to block undesired traffic. Azimuth is a natural foundation for any network which wants private
