<p>For the local Bitcoin node, to perform the checks, we initiate a Bitcoin connection to get information from the handshake and then we close it, just to have Bisq rebuild the connection in case the node is well configured. We might be able to perform these checks by hooking into the regular/existing connection process. In that case the checks would be free in terms of network IO.</p>
