Hello, community.

I am facing bitcoin configuration issues. What I need is to configure bitcoind (which is running as node) somehow to accept blocks only from my list of trusted nodes. At the same time I want to allow any other node of bitcoin network to download blocks from my node. I am thinking about my node as some kind of proxy_layer.
Is it even possible for current bitcoin codebase/bitcoin features?
I am also curious wether it is possible for old bitcoin codebase (let say bitcoin version 0.7 or 0.8)

There are no configuration options for dictating what you accept from other nodes or what you send to other nodes. There is not and never has been such options. You will either need to modify the source code of Bitcoin Core to do this yourself, or you will need some other software which acts as a filter between your node and the rest of the Bitcoin network.
