@ -17,7 +17,7 @@ This BIP describes a way for peers to authenticate to other peers to guarantee n
== Motivation ==
We assume peer operators want to limit the access of different node services or increase datastream priorities to a selective subset of peers. Also we assume that peers want to connect to specific peers to broadcast or filter transactions (or similar actions that reveal sensitive informations) and therefore operators want to authenticate the remote peer and ensure that they have not connected to a MITM (man-in-the-middle) attacker.

Benefits of peer authentication:
* Peers can detect MITM attacks when connecting to known peers
