elichai2, did you install python-bitcoinlib?
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:31:17
arubi, yes. but I think i've found the problem
arubi 2017-01-12 22:31:22
ah oke
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:31:44
the script open a thread for every node I give it, and I'm trying to give it ~4500 nodes
arubi 2017-01-12 22:32:15
isn't sending to all nodes a bit excessive?
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:33:21
he is trying to DoS the network
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:33:38
i've added your ip address to my banlist
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:33:39
tyvm
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:34:28
also 4500 threads is bit excessive, unless we're talking bout green threads
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:34:43
using a thread pool to dispatch the transactions would be better
arubi 2017-01-12 22:34:49
that's not gonna work too well
arubi 2017-01-12 22:34:49
I mean, you're not gonna replace anyone's in-mempool tx if it's not something their policy would allow
arubi 2017-01-12 22:34:52
probably better to figure out miners' nodes and send directly to them
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:35:21
arubi: I recall someone mentioning that miners' nodes dont accept transactions directly
arubi 2017-01-12 22:35:41
oh well
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:36:50
what elichai2 is doing is fundamentally unhealthy for the network.
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:37:07
come down, it's on a test network
arubi 2017-01-12 22:37:54
I don't mind the data if it's just normal transactions, but it's still not going to be very effective
arubi 2017-01-12 22:39:23
plus, it's probably in the best interest for miners to mine the transaction that's most well known when there's a conflict
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:39:57
i always thought it'd be in the best interest for miners to simply mine the highest paying transaction
arubi 2017-01-12 22:40:26
I guess it depends by how much higher
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:40:44
then, there's fee sniping
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:40:47
wew
arubi 2017-01-12 22:41:39
yea any contender can easily do CPFP that makes it worth while to mine the parent
arubi 2017-01-12 22:42:21
don't know how many pools actually take cpfp into account, but can't hurt
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:42:40
arubi, if the miners mine the most well known one it means there it is logically to broadcast to the whole network?
mryandao 2017-01-12 22:43:03
sigh
arubi 2017-01-12 22:43:18
elichai2, but not after a previous spend is already broadcast
arubi 2017-01-12 22:44:02
that's hard to replace if not using RBF on the original and the fee is reasonable
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:44:06
arubi, that's right
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:44:47
mryandao, 2 things: 1. i'm running on test network only. 2. you can be 100% sure that a lot of people broadcast a lot of stuff, even non-standard transactions and stuff
elichai2 2017-01-12 22:44:57
and some people are pentesting the network
