Orchid

Introduction

What is Orchid ?

"Orchid is a Tor client implementation and library written in pure Java."

Orchid and I2P

There's a fork of Orchid for I2P as a plugin. It will allow your I2P browser to browse the clearnet by using the Tor network through the I2P network.

As in: I2P browser <-> I2P Router+Orchid plugin <-> I2P network <-> Tor network.

Status

By 2015, the Orchid plugin made by zzz is broken.

In 2016, thebland worked to repair the plugin.

As of 2023, both plugin versions are noted as "Obsolete, supports v2 onion only" on Plugins page, and the actual Orchid's last commit is from 2016.

Where to get it

The Orchid plugin, both zzz's and thebland's, are obsolete. See the page Plugins "Obsolete" section.
