CROSSBOW | File Transfer

Aspera-grade UDP file transfer with simple price

What it does

• CROSSBOW is a P2P large-file transfer solution developed by Y PLACE • Built on a proprietary pure-UDP engine (mkudp, mkfft) — no OS-level TCP, no legacy transport overhead • Fully peer-to-peer — no cloud relay, no third-party infrastructure, data stays on your network path • End-to-end encryption via ChaCha20-Poly1305, one of the most battle-tested modern ciphers available • Aspera-class throughput at a fraction of the cost, with a simple and affordable subscription model

    Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
