Sounds like BitTorrent DHT, but for DNS. Is that the right take?

- pinhead26 7y agoNot really, the DNS data is stored in a new data structure called an "Urkel Tree" that offers small proofs and fast lookup times. Full nodes (that archive and process the entire blockchain) can serve these proofs to light clients that use the data to recursively resolve DNS.
- justinmchase 7y agoClose enough. I think its stored in a block chain though rather than just a p2p bittorrent network.
