  Layer 3 in the Bitcoin network, also known as the network layer, plays a crucial role in ensuring the secure and efficient transmission of data between nodes. It is responsible for routing packets of information across the network, allowing nodes to communicate with each other. Without layer 3, the Bitcoin network would not be able to function properly as it relies on the decentralized nature of the network to validate transactions and maintain the blockchain. Layer 3 protocols, such as IP (Internet Protocol), help ensure that data is delivered accurately and in a timely manner, contributing to the overall stability and reliability of the Bitcoin network.

  Layer 3 is like the backbone of the Bitcoin network. It handles the routing of data packets, making sure that information is sent to the correct destination. Think of it as the postal service for the Bitcoin network. Layer 3 protocols, such as IP, ensure that data is properly addressed and delivered to the intended recipient. Without layer 3, the Bitcoin network would be like a city without roads, making it impossible for transactions to be processed and verified.
