Subject: [Bitcoin-development] Anyone still using SOCKS4?
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2014 17:39:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+s+GJDSPS=zsM64wHaG1CucHVkO==L1QkHYiciUo9iJ-RADng@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello all,
Is anyone using a SOCKS4-only proxy with Bitcoin Core? SOCKS5 was
introduced in 1996, so there is hardly an excuse to not support it.
If no one screams fire, we plan on removing support for it in the next
major release, for two reasons:
- It would remove some crufty, hardly tested code paths
- SOCKS5 offers better privacy as it allows DNS redirection
