With bitcoind I whitelisted the following local connections: whitelist=10.0.0.0/8 It’s in bitcoin.conf on my server. When I run bitcoin-qt on my laptop (it only has one server peer), it doesn’t sync any blocks unless I block all incoming connections to the server from the WAN.
i used bitcoin-cli -netinfo And I saw my customer 10.0.0.10 They are listed as follows: npr So I know it’s connected.
I saw a suggestion to use whitebind However, this requires more effort to implement than simply to use. whitelist. Reserve local wallet connection
Is there a way to give priority to whitelisted clients so they sync immediately? Or is whitebind the only option?
