Syntropy, an enterprise-oriented NaaS startup, has been getting attention now that execs from Verizon and AT&T have joined their advisory board. They want to speed up BGP's shortest path routing algorithms by adding an encrypted, agent-based layer that computes the fastest path in its mesh of nodes. In a somewhat novel move, they will be paying nodes to join the network (either in conventional currency or their own token). They are claiming up to ~200 ms improvements across cloud providers. What do you think of their approach? I think it's fascinating, but I'm skeptical they'll see adoption beyond the crypto community.
Here's more information on their decentralized autonomous routing protocol (DARP): https://www.syntropynet.com/darp
