Traditional P2P has a lot of potential. It just has almost no attention these days, everything has a blockchain built in.
BitTorrent was mainstream, and had near-centralized performance in ideal conditions.
I think that a cross-platform P2P solution that doesn't make any compromises to add incentive layers or data structures to support them, could really work.
No crazy CRDTs, no append only ledgers, just fully mutable multi-writer torrents.
GUN seems to be closet.
