IPv8 routing flaws: Why MPLS overhead doubles complexity
Ryan Hamel ended the IPv8 debate on May 4, 2026. We analyze why doubling BGP state tables creates unsustainable overhead for modern networks.

IPv8 routing requires 192 cores to handle packet rates. Learn why this control-plane indirection adds latency instead of solving scarcity.

IPv8 collapses seven network layers into one dependency. My review shows how a single auth timeout triggers total failure, not graceful degradation.
