combining reactive routing of payments and swarm redistribution

in res-currency •  7 years ago  (edited)

One interesting notion about swarm redistribution + Ripple is that the "pulses" can be combined with reactive routing of payments, the pulses is a continuous communication between nodes in the network that can forward routing requests together with the swarm redistribution.

To do reactive routing, signals have to be sent through all possible paths (trust lines) regardless, so its a nice fit with swarm redistribution, two birds with one stone.

Swarm distribution could really solve a major big problem :)

wow that reactive,very good news

Swarm redistribution is an interesting notion @johan-nygren.
Totally, useful.
Great work and nice content.
Thanks for sharing

as you may see, this idea was false, reactive routing uses trust lines, not credit lines, so swarm redistribution and routing do not overlap, but are a bit similar since both require flooding the network with packages
