Privacy-Preserving Filesharing Track: Testnet v0.3
1. Large Data Transport Layer for Mix: Working Implementation
Based on the transport layer draft spec and reference implementation, we will build a Nim implementation in nim-libp2p.

2. Anonymous Downloads
Using the results from (1), we want to adapt our revamped download protocol to run over a mixnet. At first, we will only deal with making downloads unlinkable; i.e., nodes downloading a file should not be linkable to the content they are downloading. Providers remain exposed.

3. Improvements to Mix
The Logos mix network is at the core of our privacy-preserving filesharing system, and we therefore active collaborate with Anon. Comms in improving it.
- LIONESS payload encription for Sphynx, critical in preserving payload integrity for Mix;
- RLN performance improvements. RLN performance is the bottleneck for Mix throughput, making this faster means making the whole network faster. Preliminary results show that we can make RLN up to 13x faster than the original implementation.
