All content has been migrated to docs.dash.org. You will be automatically redirected momentarily.

This section describes the Dash P2P network protocol (but it is not a specification). It does not describe the BIP70 payment protocol, the GetBlockTemplate mining protocol, or any network protocol never implemented in an official version of Dash Core.

All peer-to-peer communication occurs entirely over TCP.
