Hello list,=20

Here is a link for a draft of a BIP for  compact probabilistic block =
filters alternative of BIP 158

=
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jH9tEUyb9w2OZd4-kxfGuyNIIZzmgkEb_z0qSx=
v80ik/edit?usp=3Dsharing =
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jH9tEUyb9w2OZd4-kxfGuyNIIZzmgkEb_z0qS=
xv80ik/edit?usp=3Dsharing>

Summary:

 - BIP 158  false positive rate is low, we can achieve lower bandwidth =
with higher false positive rate filter while sync blockchain

 - BIP 158 not do not support filter batching by design of used =
parameters for siphash and Golomb coding optimal parameters

 - Alternative compression with delta coding and splitting data to 2 bit =
string  sequences. First for data without prefixes, second one for =
information about  bit length written to first sequence.
   Second sequence have a lot of duplicates,  compressed with 2 round of =
Huffman algorithm. (Effectivity about 98% vs Golomb with optimal =
parameters)

 - Block filters batching reduce filter size significantly

- Separation of filters by address type allows lite client not to =
download redundant information without compromising privacy.

- Lite client filters download strategy: get biggest filter (smallest =
blocks/size rate) for blocks range, in case positive test  -> get medium =
filters to reduce blocks range ->  get block filters for affected range =
-> download affected blocks over TOR=20

Implementation (python): =
https://github.com/bitaps-com/pybtc/blob/bugfix/pybtc/functions/filters.py=
#L172 =
<https://github.com/bitaps-com/pybtc/blob/bugfix/pybtc/functions/filters.p=
y#L172>

Exactly information from mainnet  about size for separated filters by =
address types and batch size will be added within few days.

Thanks for any feedback.
