Hello everyone!
I'm sharing the current rough draft of the Nymstr Federated Discovery Protocol for feedback.
The protocol aims to:
- Enable federated username discovery with privacy guarantees over the Nym mixnet
- Use Merkle-based registration logs, BFT consensus, and gossip for global consistency
- Prevent metadata leakage, replay attacks, and node equivocation
- Support ephemeral message delivery via SURBs and rotating home nodes
