Hello, I am proposing a new feature for rate limiting purposes where nodes can make and solve arbitrary PoW challenges in return for connection slots (to be expanded to cover e.g. bloom filters or other DoS risky services).
The BIP currently includes two proofs of work (sha256 and cuckoo-cycle) which can be combined (e.g. sha256(cuckoo-cycle) or sha256(sha256(sha256)), etc).
