• Real-time updated sites
• Namecoin .bit domains support

• After startingzeronet.py you will be able to visit zeronet sites usinghttp://127.0.0.1:43110/{zeronet_address} (eg.http://127.0.0.1:43110/1HeLLo4uzjaLetFx6NH3PMwFP3qbRbTf3D).
• When you visit a new zeronet site, it tries to find peers using the BitTorrentnetwork so it can download the site files (html, css, js...) from them.
• Each visited site is also served by you.
• Every site contains acontent.json file which holds all other files in a sha512 hashand a signature generated using the site's private key.
• If the site owner (who has the private key for the site address) modifies thesite, then he/she signs the newcontent.json and publishes it to the peers.Afterwards, the peers verify thecontent.json integrity (using thesignature), they download the modified files and publish the new content toother peers.
