Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks offer several advantages over a central server, primarily in terms of scalability, resilience, and cost efficiency. One key benefit is that the workload is distributed across multiple nodes in the network, rather than being concentrated on a single central point. This distribution improves scalability, meaning the network can handle a greater number of users and data requests without performance degradation. Furthermore, in a P2P network, there is no single point of failure;
