[API] bi-directional automated messaging to query peers
use case: a new peer subscribes to the IPFS_SOCIAL_PROOF
topic and should immediately broadcast its identity information: pubkey, handle, etc.
see: https://github.com/IBM/ipfs-social-proof/blob/master/src/index.js#L93
Peers should update the peer list.
It may also be handy to keep track of peers in level-db: peerHash,
firstSeen
, lastSeen
, currentHandle
, etc
Perhaps we log the peer joined
event, but do not display the peer in the peers list until we have the initial broadcast
?
