ARKNAS
arknas.org demo node is online

Personal recovery infrastructure for private secrets.

ARKNAS combines encrypted blob storage, paper recovery, hardware authorization, and NAS workflows into a small self-hosted root node.

ARKNAS / recovery invariant
PaperArkSheet carries the root key, locator, checksum, and human-readable recovery instructions.
DiscOffline ARKROOT-A/B snapshots and recovery tools survive without accounts or network services.
NetworkARKNAS Cloud and third-party mirrors store encrypted blobs only.
ChainArkAnchor provides timestamp, sequence hint, and locator commitment.

Boundaries

The service layer is useful only because the secret layer is not here. Cloud storage can disappear; the recovery invariant must still hold.

Encrypted blobs

ARKROOT snapshots, manifests, and backups are stored as ciphertext by default.

No root secrets

Global Root Key, wallet seed, plaintext passwords, and weak password hashes do not belong on this server.

Local authority

ArkSheet and valid ARKROOT-A/B copies remain sufficient for recovery.

Open components

Private secrets stay private while protocols, formats, and apps can be audited.

BP1 updates

Firmware update metadata is published as signed manifests for device-side verification.

Status

This public node is a lightweight demo endpoint for the ARKNAS Cloud direction.
