I’m running Bitcoin Core (28.1) successfully on my Mac (latest version) Trough Tor (latest version), but it wasn’t accepting incoming connections. I did:
TORC configuration file:
ControlPort 9051
CookieAuthentication 1
CookieAuthFileGroupReadable 1
bitcoin.config
server=1
txindex=1
bind=127.0.0.1
onlynet=onion
externalip=my.onion.address (tried with and without, doesnt make a difference)
(in gui i've ticked accept incoming connections and run through socks5 proxy)
I still have 10 outbound connections, but one inbound one, it’s not enough and there’s a local IP there (starting at 127). Also, according to BitNodes, I say I can’t reach it (he was told once he was told). In the debug window I received the message about the ad Tor with the onion address.
Can someone please clarify what that one inbound connection is and how to set up for inbound connections? thank you!
