    asciilifeform: shinohai: maybe i'm thick, but not found anyffin in there re getaddr ?
    
    asciilifeform: ( found this other lul tho : 'This release allows peers that your node automatically disconnected for misbehavior (e.g. sending invalid data) to reconnect to your node if you have unused incoming connection slots.  If your slots fill up, a misbehaving node will be disconnected to make room for nodes without a history of problems (unless the misbehaving node helps your node in some other way, such as by connecting to a part of t
    
    asciilifeform: he Internet from which you don't have many other peers).  Previously, Bitcoin Core banned the IP addresses of misbehaving peers for a period of time (default of 1 day)...' )
    
    asciilifeform: new level of leprosy in ea. release is these folxs' trademark, i suppose
    
    shinohai: ^ that was the "leprosy" I found intersting. But nothing on getaddr yet. But think I'll dig more into it.
    
    asciilifeform: the mega-q is : where the fuck does a prb noad get peers ?
    
    asciilifeform: 'watchglass' speaks deliberately only the protocol spoken by trb. so if it dun get peers from a $node -- trb won't either
    
    asciilifeform: the q is, does prb in fact have some entirely incompat. means of same thing -- or is given peers strictly from gavin hq.
    
    asciilifeform: ( which in turn would introduce the q -- if the latter, then how the hell do they end up connecting to trb noades )
    
    shinohai: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Satoshi_Client_Node_Discovery   <<< Check out Handling Message "getaddr"
    
    asciilifeform: shinohai: this is implemented in trb. and watchglass.
    
    asciilifeform: but prb -- not. it doesn't return anyffin (in any of the cases i've tried)
    
    asciilifeform: the most i've seen, is that certain prb return ~self~ in getaddr.
    
    shinohai: prb still has hard-coded "seed nodes" it appears: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/chainparams.cpp#L116
