Rucknium[m]Cao, Yu, Decouchant, Luo, & Verissimo (2020) "Exploring the Monero peer-to-peer network." said "We plan to release our toolset as an open source project shortly."

Rucknium[m]Did anyone see anything more about this? The first author is now at a blockchain research firm. We could contact him: academy.kunyaokeji.com/team

jozsef[m]Cao's 2022 PhD thesis available from wwwfr.uni.lu/layout/set/print/snt/people/tong_cao. The tools include "NeighborFinder" and "NodeScanner", as far as I can tell, unreleased. I have contacted him at Kunyao Academy.

UkoeHBI put together an overview of the Seraphis design as currently implemented: gist.github.com/UkoeHB/f508a6ad973fbf85195403057e87449e

rbrunnerInteresting. Maybe also post this on #no-wallet-left-behind.
-
rbrunnerI saw only one small typo, towards the end: "Such clientes only need to download key"
-
rbrunnerIf you list everything in one place, it really becomes apparent what a jump forward that will be - if we can pull it off.

meropeRucknium are you looking for a script/tool to scan the monero network?
-
Rucknium[m]The paper I discussed last meeting about Dandelion++ assumed a certain ratio of transactions to node per time unit. It would be good to have an accurate node count.
-
Rucknium[m]There are websites with Monero node counts. Without a methodology or open source code for those estimates, they are unreliable.
-
sech1If you set max out peers in your monerod to ridiculous numbers, it won't connect to more than 1200-1300 nodes even on a 1 Gbit connections. I know, I've tried.
-
meropeI have an old python script that will recursively scan nodes via the p2p protocol, I can send it to you
-
meropeIt kinda starts bugging out once it gets into the 5k+ nodes found range, but perhaps you can find someone who could improve it a bit
-
Rucknium[m]That would be good. Can you post it publicly so others can see, too?
-
meropeSure, though the code quality is kinda garbage 😅
-
plowsof11is this parsing print_pl?
-
meropenope, I use the py-levin package which actually does a p2p handshake with nodes and decodes the peerlist received
-
meropeand then does the same with each of those peers, and so on
-
plowsof11wow nice
-
merope(this one: github.com/sanderfoobar/py-levin )
-
plowsof11i remember trying this and "it didnt work"
-
plowsof11i assume i was the problem, and it still works?
-
meropeiirc I had to do some tweaks to py-levin
-
meropeit's not a proper full implementation of the entire levin protocol, only does the handshake and little else iirc
