Note: This is a **node** version of the NKN protocol, which relays data for
clients and earn mining rewards. For **client** implementation which can send
and receive data (currently for free!), please refer to
[nkn-client-js](https://github.com/nknorg/nkn-client-js/).

## Introduction

The core of the NKN network consists of many connected nodes distributed
globally. Every node is only connected to and aware of a few other nodes called
neighbors. Packets can be transmitted from any node to any other node in an
efficient and verifiable route. Data can be sent to any clients without public
or static IP address using their permanent NKN address with end-to-end
encryption.
encryption. The network stack of NKN network is open source at another repo
called [nnet](https://github.com/nknorg/nnet) that can be used to build other
decentralized/distributed systems.

The relay workload can be verified using our Proof of Relay (PoR) algorithm. A
small and fixed portion of the packets will be randomly selected as proof. The
