Libp2p, a Rust peer-to-peer library
summary
Rust libp2p is a working Rust implementation of libp2p used in Substrate and visible on Polkadot telemetry it implements tokio and futures async IO, multiaddr transports (TCP, WebSockets, DNS, UNIX), mDNS plus bootstrap nodes for discovery, pubsub and a Kademlia DHT, secio encryption and mplex multiplexing with plans to move to TLS and QUIC. The library is modular, source is available, version 0.1 is planned, and real networks of ~70–80 nodes run today though throughput benchmarks are still minimal.
