@dave yes. if i were to have the same pub key on 2 nodes what would the system do?

@suorcd if they have the same pub key but different private keys then the one with the private key that does not match would be unable to properly sign its messages so it would be ignored by the swarm.

If they both have the same pub key and private key, they would probably just show up as to identical nodes. The QUIC connections would still work so it should still be visible in the swarm.

There’s only one way to find out. 😅
