Title: Finding Peers Post by: anthony.selby on June 22, 2011, 04:23:00 AM I was just wondering how does bitcoin find its first peers ?
If its some kind of "tracker" then wouldn't that be a place to shut down enough of the network to make "normal" people lose faith in bitcoin ? I know that if I debt card stopped working for more then a day I would be at the bank yelling, but without someplace to go people would lose faith quickly Title: Re: Finding Peers Post by: N4rk0 on June 22, 2011, 04:34:10 AM I have read somewhere that they are fetched from irc chat , also you can specify adrresses on the conf file.
Btw you can make more than one tracker so taking down every tracker is not easy. |
