1 2016-02-01 13:57:37 <xabbix> I'm trying to figure out which peer is sending me an orphan transaction. Since the 'stored orphan transaction' log line does not contain the peer id that broadcasted it, I'm trying to figure out the best approach to do this. If I take the earliest log line that this orphan txid was mentioned on (which is an 'ask inv' line), is the peer mentioned there the peer that actually broadcasted me that txid?
 2 2016-02-01 13:58:41 <xabbix> sorry, the first mention is a 'got inv: tx'
 3 2016-02-01 14:04:33 <wumpus> xabbix: yes; that's the first node that told you of existence of the transaction
 4 2016-02-01 14:05:03 <xabbix> wumpus: great, thanks!
 5 2016-02-01 14:06:16 <xabbix> wumpus: And since this is an orphan tx, does that also necessarily mean that that peer is the 'owner' of this tx? I'm asking since I understand that orphan txs are not relayed to other nodes.
 6 2016-02-01 14:06:39 <xabbix> (let's assume everyone is running bitcoin-core, and no one uses webwallets for the sake of the argument)
 7 2016-02-01 14:07:57 <wumpus> I don't think so; there is no guarantee that tranasactions are relayed in-order, it's possible that the other node has received the parent transaction but you didn't yet
 8 2016-02-01 14:08:18 <xabbix> wumpus: ah, right.
 9 2016-02-01 14:08:24 <wumpus> (not all nodes receive transactions in the same order; that's the reason orphan txes are stored at all)
10 2016-02-01 14:08:39 <xabbix> cool, thanks.
11 2016-02-01 14:18:17 <xabbix> is there a way to ban a peer in 0.11? I see that setban is introduced in 0.12
12 2016-02-01 14:27:29 <wumpus> iptables -A INPUT -s <ip> -j DROP  :)
13 2016-02-01 14:38:09 <xabbix> wumpus: yeah, that will work :)
14 2016-02-01 17:42:24 <OxADADA> i concur: https://drewdevault.com/2015/11/01/Please-stop-using-slack.html
15 2016-02-01 17:43:45 <OxADADA> especially since we use both Slack & IRC. Why use two?
16 2016-02-01 17:44:23 <wumpus> well there are some non-technical people which apparently prefer slack
17 2016-02-01 17:44:47 <wumpus> but technical discussion won't move from IRC
18 2016-02-01 18:31:02 <Aleph0> OxADADA: there are quite a few people that visit slack.
19 2016-02-01 18:31:09 <Aleph0> that i never seen use irc, ever.
20 2016-02-01 18:33:26 <btcdrak> OxADADA: Slack is not meant to replace IRC for development co-ordination. It's there to provide a bridge for the greater community and also provide some social contact with devs
21 2016-02-01 19:05:52 <OxADADA> btcdrak: sounds good
22 2016-02-01 19:10:08 <btcdrak> heh
