Last time I shared the resource machine of anoma @ anoma, it's been a long time since I shared any knowledge about anoma. Today, let's share some tips on Anoma's P2P layer and see the differences between his mainstream other blockchains such as ETH and Polkadot @ Polkadot (the founder of Anoma has been a consensus protocol engineer at Polkadot for over six months) -P2P network is a virtual network composed of machines linked to each other on the Internet, that is, the Overlay Network in the figure -P2P nodes may not necessarily be physically adjacent or directly connected. The structure of the Overlay Network layer eliminates any centralized mechanism for coordination. -P2P is a decentralized communication network and an important component of blockchain P2P networks are mainly responsible for: -Data propagation: Authenticator nodes need to distribute transaction blocks throughout the network for local verification -Data storage: Important data must be securely stored to ensure its availability, even if some nodes are unavailable -Data retrieval: When a node wants to access specific data in the blockchain, it will send a request to the relevant nodes that have the required information Comparison with other systems: ETH uses two independent P2P Overlay Network layers: one for consensus nodes to propagate blocks, and the other for executing nodes to propagate transactions, each with different protocols. In contrast, Polkadot's heterogeneous parallel chains each run independent P2P Overlay Networks. The main difference lies in scale - Ethereum nodes participate in two overlay network layers across the entire network, while Polkadot nodes only participate in a network of parallel or relay chains. The architecture of Ethereum is like two parallel layers covering the entire network, while Polkadot's P2P network consists of multiple smaller joint coverage layers dedicated to subnetworks. This design makes Polkadot's data propagation and retrieval faster, but dividing the network into independent sub networks also brings potential risks. ANOMA's design: -Nodes can create domains for specific purposes. For example, nodes can create domains for blockchain specific services (such as resolving intent) or network specific services (such as anonymous routing). Nodes can join any number of domains simultaneously, limited only by their own capabilities and the membership protocols of each domain -Intra domain and inter domain protocols, where nodes participate in intra domain and inter domain protocols. For example, solvers in a specific solver domain may need to establish inter domain connections with nodes in the validator domain to send solved intents to execute blocks. This method allows for cross domain communication and collaboration -Based on node reputation and group reputation, node based reputation systems allow nodes to discover and consider the reliability, preferences, and capabilities of their peer nodes.
