Introducing the libp2p Annual Report 2025 at the forefront of decentralized networking and AI. From securing global networks to powering next-gen data availability and light clients, libp2p continues to be foundational infrastructure for Web3 and beyond. Let’s dive in 👇

🌐 THE SCHEDULE IS LIVE! 🇮🇳 We’re excited to announce the schedule for the Resilient Networking Hub @ @EFDevcon 8 Mumbai. 🔗 Explore the full schedule: libp2p.tech/schedule From November 3–6, we are bringing together protocol researchers, open-source maintainers, builders, security practitioners, and the decentralized infrastructure community to explore what it takes to build a more resilient internet. 🛠️ What’s happening at the Hub? 🔗 Build resilient networks from the ground up with libp2p, peer identity, discovery, transports, and secure connections. 🤖 Explore the Internet of Agents through verifiable agent actions, trustworthy receipts, AI inference evidence, and open observability standards. 🔐 Dive into protocol and cryptographic resilience, including post-quantum P2P migration, formal verification, Lean, zero-knowledge proofs, and privacy measurements. 📦 Build with decentralized storage through @IPFS, Helia, Kubo, self-hosted infrastructure, and hands-on workshops with real-world applications. 🌍 Discover decentralized infrastructure in practice with the @ethswarm ecosystem, decentralized publishing, streaming, collaborative editing, and permanent archives. 💬 Join the discussions that shape what comes next from network trust, failure and recovery to @Ethereum protocol resilience, public goods, and sustainable infrastructure. ⚡ Expect hands-on workshops, research sessions, live demos, maintainer meetups, roundtables, and plenty of opportunities to meet the people building and maintaining the infrastructure we all depend on. This is an invitation to participate, not just attend. Whether you are a student exploring P2P networking for the first time, a researcher investigating protocol resilience, a maintainer looking to collaborate, or a builder working on decentralized applications and agentic systems, we’d love to welcome you. Come share your work, bring your questions, meet fellow contributors, and help us experiment with more resilient, open, and verifiable infrastructure. A big thank-you to all the speakers, maintainers, researchers, ecosystem partners, and volunteers helping bring this community together. Also, special thanks to friends from @EFDevcon team, @satyaki44 and @OrnellaWeb3. 📅 November 3–6 | Devcon 8 Mumbai 🚀 libp2p Expedition: October 31–November 8 🔗 Full schedule: libp2p.tech/schedule 🤝 Join us at the Resilient Networking Hub. Let’s build, learn, and make the internet more resilient, together!

🌐 How do we build networks that survive disconnection, resist censorship & protect privacy? Join the Network Resilience, Privacy & Connectivity Research Track at @EFDevcon 8 Mumbai! Explore self-healing networks, offline-first communication, censorship resistance, mobile & edge networking, and resilient connectivity with libp2p. Website: libp2p.tech/network-resilien… Submission: tinyurl.com/RNH-Research-Tra… PR submission link (required): github.com/seetadev/libp2p-2… 🧪 Submit a PoC + long-form research paper by Oct 30, 11:59 PM PST to qualify for a full Devcon 8 fee waiver and virtual participation at IETF 127. Special thanks to friends from @NyxFoundation, @Ethereum_JP, @linuxfoundation, @outshiftbycisco, @Oracle and @UIDAI, who will be joining the #Technical #Steering #Commitee of this research track. We also wish to thank friends from @thedaofund and @Giveth for helping shape the discussions on security of @ethereum. Let’s build networks that work when connectivity can’t be taken for granted. 🛠️

🌐 Meet Ryosuke Kaga, joining the #Resilient #Networking Hub at @EFDevcon as a Knowledge Curator alongside @0xcrackedDev, @Sumanjeet_0012 and @Winter_Soren from py-@libp2p. Ryosuke is an aspiring #cryptography researcher exploring #Lean-based #formal #verification, #cryptography, and #distributed #systems, with a keen interest in @Ethereum protocol research and security. 🔬 We’re excited to bring together researchers and builders exploring how mathematical proofs, formal methods, and protocol engineering can make decentralized systems more secure and verifiable. We will also focus on better security coordination and workflows between @ethereumfndn and @libp2p: 1. Coordination & security workflows: focused on monthly coordination, roles and responsibilities, enabling better security management workflows: github.com/libp2p/libp2p/dis… 2. Operations & collaboration: focused on the operational perspective, tools, and workstreams we can develop to enable better collaboration with EF regarding Consensus Clients: github.com/seetadev/libp2p-2… 3. Scaling Collaboration: tinyurl.com/eth-clients-coor…. Let’s build a more #resilient #internet together! 🚀 🔗 libp2p.tech/devcon #Lean @Ethereum #FormalVerification
