Hi All,

I'm pretty new to running a node. The node appears to be running fine with a blank bitcoin.conf (but all connections are only IPv4).

As soon as I include the Tor network my incoming connections go to zero.

I am putting this in my bitcoin.conf, could anyone help me with the correct commands?

server=1
listen=1
onion=127.0.0.1:9050
listenonion=1
proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
proxyrandomize=1

Thanks

Recommend to test it by trying to access .onion websites with the Tor Browser to ensure that Tor itself is working first.

Yes I can access .onion sites

with the above config I can have outgoing peers on the .onion network. But no incoming on either Tor or IPv4.

Thanks,

I've made progress in that there are two SOCKS5 options in the settings, the second option creates a separate SOCKS5 connection, and still allows IPv4/6 incoming.

However, does this allows for incoming Tor connections?

But also, is it a security issue for those connecting on Tor if am also connecting to IPv4/6?
