> 3. Restarting the node and reloading the wallet logged messages about pushing the unbroadcast TXs to the mempool, but I do not think any sensitive-relay connections were triggered to deliver those. Eventually I tried sending another new TX and then, even though only 5 sensitive connections were being opened for that one new TX, over time those connections were used for some of the backlog ("preten

Rebased on master.
Updated the time-machine to current Guix master.
Fixed macOS builds by retaining GCC 10 in it's manifest. This seems like the most straight-forward way to proceed here, given this code is going to be removed soon in any case (and GCC isn't used for the bitcoind builds).

There is currently a non-determinism issue (`x86_64` vs `aarch64`) with the `powerpc64le-linux-gnu` build.

`2541f09439...6e6f83b0f7`: rebase due to conflicts and address some suggestions and issues. Also ditch `UseSensitiveRelay()` and use `m_opts.sensitiverelayowntx` directly.

Good! This should be moved a bit below, after the transaction has been added to the mempool: `const MempoolAcceptResult result = m_chainman.ProcessTransaction(ptx);` and conditional on `result`.

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27509#discussion_r1281854368)
Yes. This is the case for all connections - if the peer goes silent, but does not close the connection, then we will close it after 20 minutes. Do you think that is not suitable for sensitive relay connections? If yes, what to do better?

For sensitive relay connections it is not possible to fingerprint based on the version handshake or any other messages exchanged (see the OP under "The messages exchange should look like this").

The only non-constant in the `VERSION` message we send is the peer nonce, then `VERACK` has no payload and the only payload in the `PING` is the ping nonce.

Oh for some reason I thought our ping timeout was smaller than `TIMEOUT_INTERVAL` (turns out it's the same). Feel free to consider this a nit.

But I think it would be reasonable for these connections to timeout much quicker anyway, since we don't care about keeping them around.

> The only non-constant in the VERSION message we send is the peer nonce

Yes and this can be used for fingerprinting, because we disconnect incoming connections that match an already existing nonce.

And I wouldn't be surprised if there are more ways to fingerprint in the version handshake. This will also end up being a maintenance concern going forward, mostly as a burden
