I hope this is the case now, because I know in earlier versions when the seednodes went down and I restarted my app it would not connect even though I had previously been connected to many peers.

The seednodes most likely perform some function that regular peers cannot due to some valid reason I am sure. This is concerning because if the seednodes are offline then the whole network goes down, thus making the network solely dependent on a server admin. The ideal is to only require seednodes for the bootstrap.

If you have a peerlist already then you do not need seednodes in monero, this makes it decentralized. If in haveno you need a seednode every time you join the network then it is not decentralized. The whole point of seednodes is to get you connected to other peers, after the the seednode is not required.

Good idea. Better yet make it also act as bookmark so if someone buys the book they will keep it.

They have since added the option. Settings, transactions, manual fee tier election.

Though you cannot specify your own custom fee because this is bad for privacy.

This is correct, the actual system we live under is called clown-world.

If seed nodes need to be up all the time for the network to work then it is not really decentralized. Would be great if after bootstrapping and building your own peer list the seed nodes were no longer essential.

Because authors, editors, and reviewers from around the world can easily and cheaply be paid for their work without the nightmare of trying to go through the legacy banking and payment system.

Makes sense, thanks.

Do you know if I already have a good peer list and the seed nodes go down and I restart Haveno will I be able to connect to the network and use it?

Also would be cool if peers with good uptime could automatically be promoted to seed nodes, not sure if this could even work but if possible it could make the netowrk more resilient.

Support proof of work defense through external Tor by @fa2a5qj3 in 3d44f37.

Does it mean we do not get this feature by just running the app and have to set up tor seperately?

I have read up on both, that is why I made the comment.

 
 

This may be a new attack tactic. By flooding the TX pool with large transactions they are trying to artificially jack up TX costs since the spam attack did not work.

As usual Monero will learn from this and improve. 👍 It is best to go through all this while Monero is still not a top world currency.
