Abstract
[en] This thesis presents a combination of the oldest and the newest techniques to unveil Blockchain peer-to-peer networks. First, Chapter 2 describes and develops the relevant concepts related to the blockchain technology when looked at through the lens of the distributed system theory. From this point, some key characteristics of its most famous implementation: the Bitcoin will be depicted. Based on the notions defined in the previous chapter, Chapter 3d etails and motivates the approach chosen for characterising Blockchain peer-to-peer networks. Then, Chapter 4 will deepen the knowledge and the visibility of the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network by providing some of the results obtained using the aforementioned approaches. Finally, Chapter 5 conclude the work that has been presented and proposed some future works.
