Waku applications have the flexibility to embed bootstrap node addresses directly into their codebase. Developers can either use static peers operated by Status or [run a node](/run-node).
|
|
|
|
#### Pros
|
|
|
|
- Low latency.
|
|
- Low resource requirements.
|
|
|
|
#### Cons
|
|
|
|
- Vulnerable to censorship: Node IPs can be blocked or restricted.
|
|
- Limited scalability: The number of nodes is fixed and cannot easily be expanded.
|
|
- Maintenance challenges: Updating the node list requires modifying the code, which can be cumbersome and involves releasing and deploying.
