+### Pubsub topic or shard usage
+
+Status network uses static sharding as explained in [Relay Sharding](https://github.com/waku-org/specs/blob/master/standards/core/relay-sharding.md#static-sharding)
+
+All communities by default use the default shard `32` for most of their messages and use shard `64` for a few specific messages like community event messages.
+
+A community can be assigned a dedicated shard (in the range of 1-1024) after creation in which case all messages of the community are sent on that specific shard except for the community event messages.
+
+### Content topic level encryption
+
+-a universal chat identifier is used for all community chats.
+<!-- Don't enforce any constraints on the unique id generation -->
+
+All messages are encrypted before they are handed over to waku ir-respective of the encryption explained above.
+All community chats are encrypted using a symmetric key generated from universal chat id using pbkdf2.
+
+```js
+symKey = pbkdf2(password:universalChatID, salt:nil, iteration-count:65356,key-length:32, hash-func: random-sha256)
+```

 ### Content topic usage
 
 "Content topic" refers to the field in [14/WAKU2-MESSAGE](../../waku/standards/core/14/message.md/#message-attributes),
 further elaborated in [10/WAKU2](../../waku/standards/core/10/waku2.md/#overview-of-protocol-interaction).
+The content-topic usage follows the guidelines specified at [23/topics](../../waku/informational/23/topics.md#content-topic-usage-guidelines)
