Kademlialike
Kademlialike is a term used in networking and distributed systems to describe architectures, protocols, or implementations that imitate the fundamental design principles of the Kademlia distributed hash table (DHT).
Features commonly associated with Kademlialike systems include a decentralized overlay network, an XOR-based distance metric for
Typically, a Kademlialike protocol supports iterative or recursive lookups, fault tolerance through redundancy, and mechanisms for
Applications of Kademlialike designs appear in peer-to-peer file sharing, decentralized storage, content-addressable networks, and some blockchain
Although inspired by Kademlia, the term "Kademlialike" is used flexibly to describe systems that adopt similar
