Notes:
This deliverable is aimed for inclusion in the Logos testnet in Feb 2026. It showcases basic publishing over mix for Logos Core, and building mix paths using libp2p kad-dht as underlying discovery mechanism. Sybil and DoS protection is out of scope for this deployment.

Publish Mix roadmap for other Logos use cases
Owner: AnonComms Mix
This should consider e.g. Logos Storage, Blend, and other use cases to establish the priority of, amongst others:
- Introducing circuits for higher throughput, interactive protocols
- Introducing multiple mix layers for multiple packet sizes
- Generating cover traffic
- Achieving service/receiver anonymity, e.g. via Tor-like “rendezvous” points
- Incentivised mix participation etc.
