  1. Ubuntu 23
  2. Yes I have gone through the guide and completed the setup locally

Observations a) mempool.dat v1/v2 compatibility v1 format 0000000 0001 0000 0000 0000
0000008 v2 hexdump -n8 $DATA_DIR_27/regtest/mempool.dat 0000000 0002 0000 0000 0000
0000008

I guess this would imply that the mempool data has increased in v2 though I'm not sure about that

b) v2 Transport on by Default I thought that connecting to a v2 seed node would mean that all my peers would also be v2. However, I noticed that when I use bcli getpeerinfo, it outputs both v2 and v1 peers. Something interesting that I observed is that v1 peers don't have session ids 

"connection_type": "outbound-full-relay",
    "transport_protocol_type": "v1",
    "session_id": ""

 "connection_type": "outbound-full-relay",
    "transport_protocol_type": "v2",
    "session_id": "b8739386b90b8dd7216152f2ad6b044535ceef7970cbe426e6756a404ebc214e"
