2018-04-05doc: Use bitcoind in Tor documentationIndospace.io
2016-10-24Clarify `listenonion`unsystemizer
> This new feature is enabled by default if Bitcoin Core is listening, and a connection to Tor can be made. It can be configured with the -listenonion, -torcontrol and -torpassword settings. To show verbose debugging information, pass -debug=tor. But it is correct to say that the feature is enabled *regardless* of whether a connection to Tor can be made. I propose to clarify that so that users can eliminate these in their logs (when `listen=1` and no Tor). And I think it's okay to clarify about the `listen` option, because on several occasions when I read this before I always assumed `listening` meant `server=1` which cost me a lot of time in troubleshooting. ``` 2016-10-24 06:19:22.551029 tor: Error connecting to Tor control socket 2016-10-24 06:19:22.551700 tor: Not connected to Tor control port 127.0.0.1:9051, trying to reconnect ``` ### What version of bitcoin-core are you using? 0.12.1

Rename -tor to -onion to better reflect what it does.
2013-10-14[doc] Add testnet hidden service port to the example tor config.Gregory Maxwell
Seems like there are a lot of advertised testnet HS nodes that don't actually work. Lack of the testnet port on the example HS config might be one reason.
2013-09-08Rename -tor to -onion to better reflect what it does.Gregory Maxwell
I've seen users confused multiple times thinking they should be using -tor to set their tor proxy and then finding in horror that they were still connecting to the IPv4 internet. Even Jeff guesses wrong about what the knob does, so I think we should rename it. This leaves the old knob working, we can pull it out completely in a later release.
