Related: Are there any standards, APIs, best practices for p2p peer discovery?
I found this https://github.com/status-im/bigbrother-specs/blob/master/data_sync/p2p-data-sync-comparison.md https://github.com/status-im/bigbrother-specs/blob/master/da... (mentions Gossip and Kademlia) but it is several years old and doesn't contain much info on peer discovery.
- klabb3 4y agoCheck out libp2p, they're fairly mature and has discovery, relays, gossiping etc.
- anonymousDan 4y agoI think this is what Ethereum's gossip network uses.
- rakoo 4y agoPretty much any bittorrent library implements peer discovery through DHT (global database of who is interested in what hash), PEX (Peer exchange, ie if you and a peer are interested in the same content you can both exchanges other peers each side is connected to)
