I think the use of P2P like DHT is very smart, but like others I am wary due to the source.
As best I can tell:
Hypercore = company without a website? I can't find one.
Holepunch = platform made by Hypercore - again no website? Funded by Tether and Bitfinex
Keet = First app that uses Holepunch
Based on the amount of funding that Tether and Bitfinex are putting into this, this does not appear to be a neutral technology.
They do have a "killer app" though.

- kixiQu 4y agoHypercore: protocol, predates the Tether/Bitfinex stuff, I'd argue neutral. The Beaker Browser work was incredibly cool IMO. Website: https://hypercore-protocol.org/ https://hypercore-protocol.org/ The other stuff: wary. (e.g. https://en.cryptonomist.ch/2022/07/25/tether-bitfinex-hypercore-launch-holepunch/ https://en.cryptonomist.ch/2022/07/25/tether-bitfinex-hyperc... seems to me to be wrong about Hypercore being a "company")
