On our end, we mainly just need to remove the --tor.v2 arg and possibly add a new --tor.onion (or something) flag that selects the default since there no longer is a choice.
On the neutrino end, we still need to carry out this issue which is primarily a btcd/btcsuite issue as we need to add support for addrv2.
If we detect that a user is running a new enough version of Tor that doesn't support v2 any longer, then we can also automatically (?) convert their v2 addr into a v3 (well just make a new one really) and advertise that on the network instead.
Ran a quick script to see how many v2 nodes would be affected:
num nodes: 12844
num tor: 8793
num num v2: 66
num num v3: 8777
Looks like not many which is great, so perhaps we can just go w/ the option of removing the option and converting them to v3 (if their Tor daemon supports it, but I think those that do will be out of consensus come October?).
The latest version of the
Tor
daemon won't connect to the "older" v2 onion service addresses. Instead, it'll only allow users to connect out to and create (?) v3 onion services. In roughly 2 weeks, Tor will release a new version of the client that will disable support for v2 onion services: https://support.torproject.org/onionservices/v2-deprecation/#:~:text=In%20July%202021%2C%200.4.,Service%20version%202%20deprecation%20timeline.On our end, we mainly just need to remove the
