Two addresses match the traffic model
WeTheNorth had 81,341 registered members as of April 2026. With invite-only access, peak concurrent sessions are a fraction of what an open-registration market with the same account count would generate. Two mirrors provide redundancy when one address is under DDoS while keeping the mirror management complexity low enough that PGP-signed announcements stay current within twelve hours of any change.
Torzon runs five mirrors because it has 57,971 accounts from open registration and handles significantly higher peak traffic. The mirror count reflects architecture, not ambition. WeTheNorth's two-mirror setup has maintained 98.3% uptime across four years — the number speaks for itself.
