Do you have an examples of p2p apps/libs with crypto brain rot?

I actually can't think of any. We have kademlia, libp2p, iroh, ipfs, etc. - only IPFS was tangentially crypto related with filecoin/NFT usage.

Maybe I'm not understanding something about the protocol, but I really can't fathom the idea of teaching myself about ETH just to build a chat app. Also a huge fan of the projects you mentioned btw. P2Panda uses Iroh under the hood it seems.

libp2p has infected crypto

What's your beef with libp2p?
