This seems suspiciously like you are unable to. Note how unusual that is for true innovation — HN is full of posts where people can say they switched to something because it was faster, better, cheaper, etc. If all you have is a book from the previous century which predates those systems existing, that does not speak well for their merits.

Did you even read the summary on Whisper where it compares its use case vs. traditional multicast protocols like UDP? I guess not.

I'm not going to waste my energy further, you are dismissive and closed minded. The prior art you allude to is all from the previous century too, your point?

Frankly I couldnt care less if you dont end up getting "Web3", although it would be a shame for you if you didn't bother to make a concerted effort on your own behalf beyond trite comments.

I’ve been trying to be open minded but you haven’t exactly given me much to go on. There have been many P2P protocols over the years, and the only thing which appears to be of interest here is that this one is tightly coupled to the Ethereum network. Since you sold it as a computer science advance I assumed you had some idea of what that was.
