This question is similar to previosuly asked question Start a Private Bitcoin Network but since I can't comment there I am asking again.

I am working on a concept specifically for existing bitcoin so the suggested methods of litecoin or regtest are not applicable for my purpose. I need to simulate a bitcoin network over my LAN/Wifi and it would be great if someone could point me towards a method to do it.

  • Why won't your own regtest work?

  • it can simulate only one node on a machine locally, right ?

    Actually, no, you can use multiple machines on a regtest network, you just have to manually connect them using addnode. See the docs.

  • @StephenM347 thanks that works perfectly. However, I have another concern, since DNS seeding and Fixed seeds are disabled in regtest mode, how can I simulate at least one of them so as to simulate a complete bitcoin network with peer discovery on my network ?
