What is Kaspa's peer-to-peer network?

Kaspa operates as a peer-to-peer network where information flows directly between connected nodes. In a peer-to-peer setup, there is no central server or company controlling the data — each node is a computer running Kaspa software that connects directly to other nodes and passes information along. This distributed structure means the network has no single point of control or failure. For a beginner, this matters because it means no bank, company, or government sits in the middle of your transactions.
