can't be done on the same protocol layer

i built most of the encoding and decoding for a layered encryption scheme like Tor but using the same routing principles as Lightning

ran out of time getting it to a point where it could be turned into actual relays but decided that using libp2p was not going to scale well enough anyway, needed to design a p2p network protocol a bit like a hybrid of bitcoin and bittorrent, where relays didn't have to know about every other relay so clients could construct routes, and i started working on fork/join paths as well, like actual lightning bolts...

anyhow i got some help from geyser for it about a year ago, and talked to spiral and they weren't interested and didn't give any feedback... will have to do it self funded at some point in the future so i work for a company that chases grants from shitcoin projects to build social networking systems
