Title: How to check network propagation through Bitcoind
Post by: locksley on January 10, 2014, 10:54:32 PM
Running bitcoind -testnet locally (about 8 connections) at the moment and testing 'sendrawtransaction'.

However, I'm wondering if there's a way to check how many nodes have picked up the transaction?

I've also noticed it takes a while before it gets in the unconfirmed pool on testnet.btclook.com

How does blockchain.info do it with /inv ?

Thanks guys

They keep a list of every node ever and ask each one

So there's no way to check through bitcoind? Would I be looking at a node reimplementation then?
