I don't understand. What's the advantage to this, other than flooding the Tor network with even more packets...? Just tunnel bitcoind through your Tor program and let it operate as usual: I'm not aware of anything an exit node can do that would harm you even when you're going through one to get to the next bitcoin node?And by definition, you can't keep the traffic encrypted from everybody else or your transactions won't be propagated through the network...?Bitcoin nodes only maintain 8 active connections. I don't see how it's helpful to have other nodes trying to make incoming connections, when you can just make your 8 as outgoing and would start blocking the incoming ones regardless...?
