# March 2025 Newsletter 📰
Welcome to the March 2025 libp2p monthly newsletter! This month has been a whirlwind of activity across the libp2p ecosystem, with 🚀 exciting releases, 📅 new meeting schedules, a 🚢 shiny new deployment, and an incredible volume of work in the 🐍 py-libp2p project. Let’s dive into the highlights!
# Releases Galore 🚀
March brought a wave of fresh releases across multiple implementations. go-libp2p 0.41.1 (opens new window) rolled out with AutoNATv2 improvements, while nim-libp2p 1.9.0 (opens new window) introduced TLS certificate enhancements. py-libp2p 0.2.4 (opens new window) landed with Windows compatibility and more, and cpp-libp2p 0.1.33 (opens new window) and swift-libp2p 0.2.0 (opens new window) added their own polish to the mix. Each release reflects the dedication of our contributors to making libp2p more robust and versatile.
# New Meeting Schedules 📅
The [go-libp2p][go-libp2p-calendar] and nim-libp2p (opens new window) project meetings have begun (again). They both have dedicated calendars for their communities to sync up, brainstorm, and push the projects forward. These meetings are a fantastic opportunity to get involved—check the calendars and join the conversation!
# Universal Connectivity Gets a Boost 🚢
The js-libp2p universal connectivity app (opens new window) has a new home with a triply redundant, unlimited-bandwidth deployment. Say goodbye to resource constraints—this upgrade ensures seamless peer connectivity for all. It’s a game-changer for developers and users alike, showcasing libp2p’s commitment to reliable, scalable networking.
# py-libp2p’s Impressive Strides 🐍
The py-libp2p team has been on fire this month, delivering an astonishing
volume of work. From Windows compatibility (opens new window) to a completed
identify protocol (opens new window) and enhanced testing tools, the project
has seen over a dozen impactful PRs. Highlights include new examples for
pubsub (opens new window) and
GossipSub (opens new window), plus a switch to anyio for better
async handling. All of this activity is quickly bringing py-libp2p up to full
compliance with the libp2p spec.
