Christian Decker	2a5a114f27	irc: Handle node announcements ... lightningd now uses a WHOIS query on itself to learn its external IP address and announces that on the channel with the NODE message. It also tracks other nodes in the routing table. Refactored the signature verification to reuse it for both CHAN and NODE messages.	2016-10-02 14:52:14 +02:00
Christian Decker	f4568e5c1c	routing: Added IRC announcement glue ... Added channel announcement serialization and parsing, as well as the entrypoints for the IRC peer discovery. Announcements are signed by the sending endpoint and signatures are verified before adding the channels to the local view of the topology. We do not yet verify the existence of the anchor transaction.	2016-09-07 23:49:39 +02:00
