P2P and network changes
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
- Normally local transactions are broadcast to all connected peers with
|
|
which we do transaction relay. Now, for the `sendrawtransaction` RPC
|
|
this behavior can be changed to only do the broadcast via the Tor or
|
|
I2P networks. A new boolean option `-privatebroadcast` has been added
|
|
to enable this behavior. This improves the privacy of the transaction
|
|
originator in two aspects:
|
|
1. Their IP address (and thus geolocation) is never known to the
|
|
recipients.
|
|
2. If the originator sends two otherwise unrelated transactions, they
|
|
will not be linkable. This is because a separate connection is used
|
|
for broadcasting each transaction. (#29415)
