Thanks for the shoutout! We’ve been discussing this internally, and since we already track similar metrics for other projects, it’s right in our wheelhouse. Is there a community call or a specific channel where we can explore this further?
Existing ENR viewers don’t give the level of detail that we wanted. Our ENR viewer offers a few quality of life improvements:
-> Provides Geo Information
-> Calculates the custody columns
-> Parses the attnets subscriptions
-> Maps the chain ID to human readable names
We crawled the Monero P2P network and here's what we found:
- 16,454 reachable nodes
- 81.6% flagged as spy nodes
- 80%+ running on a single cloud provider (Spruce Creek)
Monero's transaction privacy is strong but its P2P layer tells a different story.
Full methodology and data in: bit.ly/40BzFgh
This is the first step towards a self-service tool that will give Ethereum node operators critical information about their node’s operational health and behaviour.
Once the full service is out, you’ll be able to find out about: transport connection establishment success, list of protocols supported by the peer, RTT measurements from several locations, list of open ports and more.
Stay tuned!
If you've noticed @ipfs.tech's upload/publish performance is so much faster lately, wonder no more! ProbeLab's Optimistic Provide is finally in production and it's working like a charm! Check how and why at: probelab.io/blog/optimis...
Here's how big the improvement has been!
At ProbeLab, we just launched an ENR viewer! The tool allows to decode and inspect @ethereum.org Node Records. Inserting your ENR will give information about your node’s ID, public key, IP address, ports, and GeoIP, hosting provider. Check it out at: probelab.io/enr-viewer/.
Notice the significant decrease of Kubo's "Provide Duration" with release v0.39.0 more than 13s to less than 1s! probelab.io/ipfs/kubo/#c...
An optimisation originally proposed and implemented by the ProbeLab team!
