Bitcoin Peer to Peer Network - The How

Apparently, bitcoin transactions are transmitted to all nodes on the Bitcoin peer to peer decentralized network, which means that my wallet is not sending a transaction to a server but rather out to all nodes on the network. How does the wallet know who those nodes are? Here's are some links to start learning how this works:

  • Peer to Peer file sharing
  • What are STUN, TURN and ICE?
  • Network Address Translation (NAT)
  • How does a node connect to the Bitcoin P2P network
  • This is the response from my linux laptop when I ran the 'dig' command.
