Wrote a Floodsub module for scratch in my experimental p2p stack. Learned a great deal how pubsub broadcasting systems behave under the hood with complex rust async designs. Getting ready to write Gossipsub now.

Started writing an experimental p2p stack, rnet inspired from libp2p specs, to dig deeper into rust and core p2p mechanics.

Attended an IRL hackathon in New Delhi. Built a p2p federated learning platform using libp2p(-py), Akave-O3 and Hedera hashgraph. Won the Filecoin/Akave track at ETHNewDelhi'25.

Found a great document to learn about firewall management and iptables in deep.

Built a VPN gateway using Wireguard, Docker and a nginx server, restricting the server access to only allow wireguard-client IP addresses by modifying the firefall rules for the docker network. It was fun, wrote a blog about this.
