-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I didn't realise my nodes didn't allow the bitcoin port. I'll get right on it.
Also, if anyone in the Tor community has spare capacity, you can also setup a full bitcoin node on the same server you use as an exit/relay/bridge and it doesn't take up a great deal of resources other than disk space (16Gb I think right now and growing slowly). On my series of exits there is also full bitcoin nodes accessible exclusively over hidden services and others which are accessible over regular clearnet. - -T On 27/10/2014 19:58, grarpamp wrote: > On Thu, Oct 23, 2014 at 7:35 PM, Erik de Castro Lopo > <mle+to...@mega-nerd.com> wrote: > > http://arxiv.org/pdf/1410.6079v1.pdf > >> Could this situation be improved if people ran limited exit nodes >> that only alloed the bitcoin p2p protocol to exit?
