Abstract
The peer-to-peer (P2P) networks are made up of networked devices that share resources without the need for a centralized server. The drawbacks of centralized messaging systems include their dependence on the internet, privacy issues, and censorship. Utilizing Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct, the system identifies nearby devices and relays messages across multiple hops in a network, employing an efficient hybrid gossip protocol (First Push, Then Pull) for optimal message propagation. The system is built with Flutter/Dart for cross-platform compatibility and features a user-friendly interface in decentralized network, including real-time updates and device management. It emphasizes scalability, fault tolerance, and privacy, making it a practical solution for communication in challenging scenarios. The implementation uses a hybrid gossip protocol, which combines the advantages of push and pull strategies, to ensure optimal message transmission. RSA (Rivest Shamir Adleman) encryption is used for end-to-end security, and offline storage ensures delivery even when recipients are temporarily unavailable. The innovative solution offers a secure and efficient alternative to conventional messaging platforms, which makes it particularly helpful in remote locations.
