Misbehaving Nodes

Take note that for both types of broadcasting, mechanisms are in place to punish misbehaving peers who take up bandwidth and computing resources by sending false information. If a peer gets a banscore above the -banscore=<n> threshold (100 by default), they will be banned for the number of seconds defined by -bantime=<n>, which is 86,400 by default (24 hours).
