I added some additional logging to my node and ran it for a few days. There's a pull req open for my extra logging, it is quite trivial. Here's what it looks like:

Despite that I have 87 connections from regular nodes, virtually all transactions seen by my node are being announced by this modified software, which appears to run on several different machines.

I am wondering if anyone out there knows/owns these nodes and if they are relaying transactions without checking their validity. That seems the most likely reason for how they are always able to win the race to be the first to announce to my node.

Thanks. By the way, your bitnodes site is excellent. Thanks for doing that. If you're in the mood for extending it, it'd be great to gather and chart data on block and tx propagation times.

Do you think the recent explosion in running nodes is real, or due to some kind of custom experimental thing?

Hello Mike,

You can see the three nodes from nogleg on https://blockchain.info/hub-nodes. They also relay the most to blockchain.info.

Is that Matt's relay, which has reduced validity checking?

Addy Yeow in reply to Mike Hearn permalink original

Hi Mike,

I am glad you are still following up with Bitnodes. The recent spike in nodes count should probably be taken with a grain of salt; run #231 ( http://getaddr.bitnodes.io/231/) does appear artificial to me, i.e. potentially bogus nodes being added. I am still working on a more in depth analysis on the data.

There are quite some TODOs for the project at the moment for the next couple of months. I have included propagation data as well into the list.

Cheers, Addy
