Peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms

Peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms are digital systems that allow individuals to connect directly with each other to share, exchange, or sell goods, services, or information without intermediaries. These platforms facilitate direct interactions, often using technology to ensure secure transactions and trust. Examples include file-sharing services, ride-sharing apps, and decentralized financial platforms. P2P systems leverage the power of networks where users act as both providers and consumers, creating decentralized, efficient, and often more cost-effective alternatives to traditional centralized services.
