P2P and Network Changes
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
### Improved Onion Connectivity
|
|
|
|
To enhance censorship resistance and mitigate network partitioning risks, Dash Core now aims to maintain at least two
|
|
outbound onion connections and generally protects these connections from eviction. As a result of the low percentage
|
|
of gossiped addresses being onion nodes, it was often the case where, unless you specify `onlynet=onion`, a node
|
|
would rarely if ever establish any outbound onion connections. This change ensures that nodes which can access the
|
|
onion network maintain a few onion connections. As a result, network messages could continue to propagate across
|
|
the network even if non-onion IPv4 traffic is blocked, reducing the risk of partitioning. Additionally, this update improves
|
|
security by enabling p2p encryption for these peers. (#6147) |
