The communication between two peers is designed and implemented, so this issue focuses on communication between three or more peers.
Challenges & Solutions:
Synchronization
Issue: Deliver messages to offline peers upon return.
Solution: Implement message queues for consistency and timestamp-based syncing (maybe with vector clock?).
Security
Issue: Verify sender authenticity.
Solution: Use end-to-end encryption with public key signatures.
Efficiency
Issue: Reduce overhead in peer updates (O(M×H) complexity).
Solution: Use differential sync with hash comparisons for sending only new messages. (Gossip protocol?)
Next Steps:
Draft technical design with algorithms and protocols.
Develop and test a prototype.
