  1. Circular Protocol Architecture

Peer-to-Peer Discovery Service

The Peer-To-Peer Discovery Service (P2PDS) plays a supportive role within Circular's architecture by facilitating the registration of each node and providing them with a comprehensive list of all other peers within the network.

This service proves especially valuable during a node's initial setup, as it enables the node to seamlessly register with the network and access a roster of other nodes for connection.

Furthermore, nodes regularly download network updates from their peers as part of an ongoing process. This ensures that new nodes entering the network are efficiently discovered and integrated into the system.

P2PDS serves as a crucial component in maintaining the network's connectivity and scalability, making it a fundamental part of Circular's architecture.
