Abstract

We present a file search algorithm that is not only Sybil-resilient, but also load-balanced among users. We evaluate our algorithm in terms of bandwidth consumption and the likelihood of bad downloads. In both metrics, our algorithms show balanced overhead among users and small chances of bad download with low bandwidth consumption.
