📝 Original message:Hi alicexbt
Thanks for setting this up. Generally it seems to me like an excellent idea to set up custom signets (and/or get proposals enabled on the default signet) for testing and experimenting with new proposals.
I have two questions.
1) In this particular case the -mempoolfullrbf configuration option is in the recent Bitcoin Core 24.0 release and so can be used both on mainnet and the default signet, testnet etc. What could be tested on this custom signet that can't be tested on the default signet with Bitcoin Core 24.0? Perhaps there are some things that are easier to test with a smaller custom signet network starting from scratch?
2) I know a number of people have struggled (e.g. [0], [1]) to get a custom signet set up. I think the CTV signet took a while to get set up too. It seems you followed the instructions on the Bitcoin wiki [2] for setting this one up? Was there anything you found difficult or was counterintuitive getting this custom signet set up? You are the sole block signer on this custom signet. How regularly are you mining blocks (e.g. strictly every 10 minutes, replicating the Poisson process on mainnet, adhoc etc?) Are you running this custom signet node on the same machine as a default signet, mainnet, testnet full node? I'm a little tentative to start joining custom signet networks on the same machine that is already running other nodes but perhaps there are no problems.
I'm not sure yet if I have a use case in mind for this particular custom signet but I'm very interested in custom signet setup generally and the docs/resources to make this as easy as possible so thanks again for posting about this.
Thanks
Michael
