Thank you for your feedback AJ and Riccardo.
Nice observation about using nBits from every 2016th block as a short
specifier of chain work. You can get some savings from the 4 byte nBits
encoding over VLQ for total chain work as in my spec.
I tried it out on the current chain. At block height 516
Hey. This idea sounds quite interesting. It'd be helpful to see some more
numbers to evaluate it.
- How much bandwidth is consumed by redundant tx INVs currently? What is
this as a % of overall bandwidth usage?
- How would filtering txs through N=2 links affect network propagation?
This probably r

Yeah, sure.

Currently, for an average public-IP node all INVs consume 0.05 Mbps or 540
megabytes per day. This number is based on current ratio public-IP
nodes:private-IP nodes and transaction rate. This number is a sum of both
