    • Reviewed and optimized all utility functions, and waiting for review (PR)
  • ift:2025q1-libp2p-mix-poc:simple-gossipsub-poc
    • Based on the discussions:
      • The exit must support GossipSub when part of the pub-sub topic, requiring its Mix instance to invoke the local GossipSub handler via the exit abstraction (already implemented).
      • If the exit is not part of the pub-sub topic, it establishes a client-only connection to the destination.
    • Instead, implemented a version where the destination MUST support Mix, allowing the destination’s Mix instance to invoke its local GossipSub instance, sending the message as if it originated there (branch link will be updated).
      • Still need to fix callback integration with GossipSub.
      • Next: Update PoC to reflect these changes.
  • ift:2025q1-libp2p-mix-poc:blogposts
