Nodes can, obviously, however, determine that the version used will be at least a certain version (in their priority order) after having received a sendcmpct message from the remote peer containing that version as the second integer. + ==Specification for version 2== Compact blocks version 2 is almost identical to version 1, but supports segregated witness transactions (BIP 141 and BIP 144).

To do so, two sendcmpct messages SHOULD be sent at startup: the first one for version 1 and a second one for version 2. -When receiving multiple sendcmpct messages, the last received one that is compatible with the receiver's software MUST be used. - ==Implementation Notes== # For nodes which have sufficient inbound bandwidth, sending a sendcmpct message with the first integer set to 1 to up to 3 peers is RECOMMENDED. If possible, it is RECOMMENDED that those peers be selected based on their past performance in providing blocks quickly (eg the three peers which provided the highest number of the recent N blocks the quickest), allowing nodes to receive blocks which come from those peers in only 0.5*RTT. |
