Hash: SHA256
I haven't seen much discussion here on the rationale behind BIP 151. Apologi=
es if I missed it. I'm trying to understand why libbitcoin (or any node) wou=
ld want to support it.
I understand the use, when coupled with a yet-to-be-devised identity system,=
with Bloom filter features. Yet these features are client-server in nature.=
Libbitcoin (for example) supports client-server features on an independent p=
ort (and implements a variant of CurveCP for encryption and identity). My co=
ncern arises with application of identity to the P2P protocol (excluding Blo=
om filter features).
It seems to me that the desire to secure against the weaknesses of BF is bei=
ng casually generalized to the P2P network. That generalization may actually=
weaken the security of the P2P protocol. One might consider the proper reso=
lution is to move the BF features to a client-server protocol.
The BIP does not make a case for other scenarios, or contemplate the signifi=
cant problems associated with key distribution in any identity system. Given=
that the BIP relies on identity, these considerations should be fully vette=
d before heading down another blind alley.
