History

virtu 7a2068a0ff seeds: Pull nodes from virtu's crawler Pull additional nodes from virtu's crawler. Data includes sufficient Onion and I2P nodes to align the uptime requirements for these networks to that of clearnet nodes (i.e., 50%). Data also includes more than three times the number of CJDNS nodes currently hardcoded into nodes_main_manual.txt, so hardcoded nodes becomes obsolete.		2024-08-27 07:00:09 +02:00

Seeds

Utility to generate the seeds.txt list that is compiled into the client (see src/chainparamsseeds.h and other utilities in contrib/seeds).

Be sure to update PATTERN_AGENT in makeseeds.py to include the current version, and remove old versions as necessary (at a minimum when SeedsServiceFlags() changes its default return value, as those are the services which seeds are added to addrman with).

The seeds compiled into the release are created from sipa's and achow101's DNS seed, virtu's crawler, and fjahr's community AS map data. Run the following commands from the /contrib/seeds directory:

curl https://bitcoin.sipa.be/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc > seeds_main.txt
curl https://mainnet.achownodes.xyz/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc >> seeds_main.txt
curl https://testnet.achownodes.xyz/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc > seeds_test.txt
curl https://21.ninja/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc >> seeds_main.txt
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fjahr/asmap-data/main/latest_asmap.dat > asmap-filled.dat
python3 makeseeds.py -a asmap-filled.dat -s seeds_main.txt > nodes_main.txt
