Peer-to-peer messages

draft optional

Abstract

Peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms have seen an upturn in recent years, while having more and more options is positive, in the specific case of p2p, having several options contributes to the liquidity split, meaning sometimes there's not enough assets available for trading. If we combine all these individual solutions into one big pool of orders, it will make them much more competitive compared to centralized systems, where a single authority controls the liquidity.

This NIP defines a simple standard for peer-to-peer messages, which enables the creation of a big liquidity pool for all p2p platforms participating.

The event

Events are Parameterized Replaceable Events and use 38383 as event kind, a p2p event look like this:
