With Cwtch you can create one of more **Profiles**. Each profile generates a random ed25519 key pair compatible with

the Tor Network.

This is the identifier that you can give out to people and that they can use to contact you via Cwtch.

|
Cwtch allows you to create and manage multiple, separate profiles. Each profile is associated with a different
|
|
|
|
key pair which launches a different onion service.
