A design for Probabilistic Partial Pruning



Summary:

In a discussion thread on the Bitcoin development mailing list, David A. Harding shared two useful emails. The first email includes links to discussions prior to 2017 regarding a potential DoS risk that is more significant than the fingerprinting risk mentioned in a previous reply.
