Kademlia is a decentralized network protocol that uses a distributed hash table (DHT) where every node and key has a unique ID, and distance between nodes is measured using XOR operations; queries are routed through nodes whose IDs are mathematically closer to the target, with each hop narrowing the search space, enabling efficient peer discovery and data retrieval without relying on a central directory.

How Kademlia DHT works #133 #csAdded:
Decentralized networks cannot depend on one central directory. They need a way to find peers and data across a moving network. Kademlia uses a distributed hash table. Every node and key gets an ID. Distance is measured using XOR.
Queries move through nodes whose IDs are mathematically closer to the target.
Each hop narrows the search space.
Central search asks the front desk.
Kademlia follows coordinates through a self-organizing map.
