Secure Scuttlebutt can do similarly. A wandering node can ferry messages to another cluster of nodes; it's used by sailboats where someone visits shore to run errands and exchanges messages as they go.

Do you know of any documentation to get SSB bootstrapped? I tried several times, but I hit a wall of not being able to find any active communities, plus there were old-style, technically obsolete communities and new-style communities, and half the available documentation referred to each, so it was impossible to figure out what to do.

  • Nope, same issue myself.

    I find it fascinating to read about, but it seems to have a steep and very slippery social hill to climb before the technical parts of the network do anything.

    • I'm fairly certain there is not a working implementation of ssb in it's original form anymore.

      But yes, it had local wifi sync.
