Predefined Nodes

Waku applications have the flexibility to embed bootstrap node addresses directly into their codebase. Developers can opt to use either the predefined nodes by Status or run a node per their preference.

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.
