Title: Incoming connections on a bitcoin node running TOR Post by: vinshet on May 04, 2022, 04:24:36 PM I am running a pruned bitcoin node that is running onlynet = onion.
Using the bitcoin-cli I get the list of IP addresses for incoming connections and I can see that there are ipv4 addresses in there. How does that really work? I'm guessing it is a 6 hop circuit because my bitcoin node is a hidden service. If that is the case, then the ipv4 address should not be visible. I'm sure there is a gap in my understanding for incoming connections and I would really appreciate it if someone could clarify it.

I'm not sure what's the problem, but I've set this to my node and I'm completely isolated from ipv4.
