tinybitcoinpeer.py

A toy bitcoin peer in Python. Connects to a random testnet node, shakes hands, reacts to pings, and asks for pongs.

This file is intended to be useful as a starting point for building your own Bitcoin network tools. Rather than doing things one way, it illustrates several alternatives... feel free to pick and choose.
