Listen to the bitcoin p2p transaction data

bitcoin-p2p can listen (no verification) to the p2p traffic of a bitcoin node and display the transactions like:

import socket, asyncio
import bdkpython as bdk
from bitcoin_p2p import tools, p2p
# see https://github.com/andreasgriffin/bitcoin-p2p

global_dict = {}

def callback_min_feerate(feerate):
    global_dict['feerate'] = feerate
    

def callback_recv_tx(tx_bytes):
    transaction = tools.transaction_from_bytes(tx_bytes)
    print(tools.transaction_table(transaction))
    
    

await p2p.listen(p2p.get_bitcoin_peer(), callback_recv_tx=callback_recv_tx, callback_min_feerate=callback_min_feerate )

with the output:

Received sendheaders command
Received sendcmpct
Received sendcmpct

Received feefilter, minimum feerate is 4477
