[LTH] [Bounty] [0.1 XMR] Fix ‘[warn] Unparseable address in hidden service port configuration’ error

So I’ve been getting the above error on my TOR monero nodes, the nodes will start and work without issue (20+ nodes) but after X amount of hours all of them show the same “[warn] Unparseable address in hidden service port configuration.” this has only started in the last week, anyone else finding the same? Sometimes it recovers automatically others it will sit repeating the same error until rebooted where it will work again.

[ANN] A faster alternative to blockchain consensus

Instead of confirmation coming from outside of transactions, it would be better for it to come from within them. Ideally, every output would be tied to the input that spends it, so it can’t be double-spent. But, this can’t be done before the input exists, so the output must be tied to an intermediary, which gets tied to the input after it’s created.
