From reading the release notes the developers kinda make out NODE_BLOOM as evil. Apparently this was accounting for a large percentage of my node's traffic, so are these evil
This is a bit off-topic, but i thought bloom filter is pretty much dead because it's easy to find out actual Bitcoin address in a SPV wallet?
Are there any SPV wallet which still use bloom filter nowadays?
