g2g

• assume some peers are malicious, but the majority follows protocol

• unchoke best neighbours
• based on recent behaviour (forwarded bytes in last 10 seconds)
• optimistic unchoke (every 20 seconds):
  • kick worst 4th unchoked neighbour (whom is not locked for ratio repay)
  • fill neighbourhood with:
    • 33% best supertrust peer (has best sharing ratio)
    • 33% if any: with you have debt (worst ratio to you)
    • 33% random
