Is there an implementation for gRPC over NIP04? And if not, would anyone else be interested in this? Using Nostr DMs as a transport layer for sending and receiving Protocol Buffer messages would allow for computers to find each other based on their nPub rather than a static IP address.

Also intetested, there are some downsides like: metadata leaks. But it's a nice idea.

Yep that's true, but for situations where you just want two computers that both have potentially nonstatic IP addresses to be able to talk to each other and perfect security isn't needed, this could still be a great protocol to have

Agree 100%
