Having noiseprotocol support Noise_XK_secp256k1_ChaChaPoly_SHA256 (the Lightning variant of Noise) would be very useful for developers looking to build Lightning Network related projects in Python.

See BOLT #8: Encrypted and Authenticated Transport for details.

As far as I know there are no Noise protocol frameworks in Python with support for Noise_XK_secp256k1_ChaChaPoly_SHA256.

Scheduled for 0.3 release :)

@plizonczyk Very glad to hear that! Is the Noise_XK_secp256k1_ChaChaPoly_SHA256 development taking place in a specific branch/fork or is that job yet to be started? :-)

@practicalswift Took a while... 😞 noiseprotocol v 0.3.0 is now released and supports non-default backends.
