Add seed nodes #41

Open pixelspark opened 6 years ago

pixelspark commented 6 years ago

Make seed.catena.pixelspark.nl an A record that points to (non-replaying) catena nodes.

Do not advertise peers discovered through DNS seeds to other peers.

This ideally should use DNS-SD (e.g. SRV records) similary to the locally advertised mDNS records.

Unfortunately the Linux implementation does not allow browsing non-local domains and it doesn't look like it's going to be implemented soon.

Let's make these regular seeds (e.g. Catena node URLs). These nodes can then use peer exchange to provide additional ones.
