Has Bitcoin explored using probabilistic block/txn relay to make eclipse attacks harder?
justanotheruser has joined #bitcoin-wizards
<queip>
yanmaani: just relaying if random() ,
<queip>
yanmaani: just relaying if random() < X ? how would that help?
<yanmaani>
queip: Then you could be connected to let's say 1000 nodes. And you'd have a good probability to be informed of a new block.
<queip>
yanmaani: afair if there is no new block for suspicious amount of time, Bitcoin Core tries to get other peers in place of current ones
<yanmaani>
That works, unless they're mining at say 10%
<queip>
imo no need to probabilistic, instead just do a lot more of headers-download-only connections to random selection of peers rotating often. right?
<yanmaani>
That takes up a lot more bandwidth
<yanmaani>
so you can't have the insane numbers of peers doing that
<queip>
yanmaani: just connect and ask for hash & work-done number of the highest block?
<yanmaani>
that's a lot of bandwidth to do 100x
<queip>
you insteaaad propose to keep a lot of open TCP connections and ask 10% for the headers?
<queip>
btw keeping open TCP costs too
