THE DOJO BAY Source

Public Dojo directory · reachable only over Tor

A live directory of Dojo nodes,
reachable only over Tor.

The Dojo Bay lists community-run Samourai and Ashigaru Dojo backends, connects to each one over Tor every ten minutes, and shows you which are answering right now, so you can pair a wallet to a full node you didn't have to run yourself. The directory is served as an onion service, so you will need Tor to open it.

The reference directory lives here
http://dojobayeryasshgghz537de5ckgd5hhi4z5sdeil3roeh65fwhdnu2yd.onion/
Open this address in Tor Browser. It will not resolve in an ordinary browser.

What it is

A directory, not a custodian.

The Dojo Bay holds no keys and touches no funds. It publishes a list of independently operated Dojo nodes and keeps a live read on which ones are reachable.

Onion-only by design

The directory has no clearnet endpoint. It is reached through Tor, the same network the Dojos themselves run on, so operators and users share one anonymity layer end to end.

Checked every ten minutes

An automated probe connects to each node through Tor and reads the chain tip. A node counts as active only when its whole stack answers: Tor, the web server, the Dojo API and bitcoind serving block data.

Signed, not trusted

Operators can sign their pairing code with their BIP47 payment code. Your wallet verifies that signature against their notification address, so a pairing payload is proven to come from the operator rather than from whoever runs the directory. A forged or tampered entry does not pass.

Step one

Get on Tor in a few minutes.

You need a Tor-capable browser to open the directory. Install the right one for your device, then come back and paste the address above.

Desktop

Windows · macOS · Linux

The official Tor Browser from the Tor Project. This is the reference build, with the strongest fingerprinting and tracking protections.

Download Tor Browser

Android

Phone · tablet

Tor Browser for Android is an official Tor Project app, with the same multi-relay routing as desktop. Grab it from the same download page or Google Play.

Get it for Android

iPhone & iPad

iOS · iPadOS

There is no Tor Browser for iOS: Apple requires every iOS browser to use its own WebKit engine, and Tor Browser is a Firefox build. The Tor Project recommends Onion Browser, open source and Tor-routed, as the closest option.

Get Onion Browser

1 Install and open it

Only ever download Tor from torproject.org (or Onion Browser from the App Store). Let it connect to the network.

2 Paste the address

Copy the .onion address from the top of this page into the Tor address bar.

3 Browse the directory

See which Dojos are live, open a node's pairing details, and connect your Samourai or Ashigaru wallet.

One habit worth keeping: only ever fetch Tor from the official site, and, if you can, verify the download signature. See the Tor Project's verification guide.

Operators & builders

Run a node, or read the code.

The Dojo Bay is a static front end with no build step and no framework: plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript, released under the MIT licence. The reachability checker, the onion deployment and the operator submission flow are all in the repository.

If you run a Dojo, you can submit it to the directory; if you would rather host the whole thing yourself, a single command runs a text-based (TUI) installer that stands the stack up in one step, with the rest documented in the README.

  • No build step, no framework, no CDN
  • Self-hostable as an onion service
  • One-command TUI installer
  • Auth47 operator submissions
  • MIT licensed
