add ASmap for run 1730210400

[jurraca]

This adds the asmap.dat result for the coordinated launch from #18 from epoch 1730210400. We had a match from 4 out of 5 participants in the coordinated launch.

To confirm the result of the encoding you can use asmap-tool.

$ python3 contrib/asmap/asmap-tool.py encode 1730210400_final_result.txt 1730210400_asmap.dat

Encoding my final_results.txt I too get an asmap.dat file with the hash 93afd5c0a82f82fca9988881f397739427c9c34bc1adb337e0d00978dcd1863a. I checked that the file added here hashes to the 93afd5c0.. hash.

I thought about making latest_asmap.dat a symlink of an asmap file. I think it should work for Linux an probably macOS too. However, it might not work for Windows.

yea let me see if I get a windows user to test this.

Windows does not seem to resolve the symlink natively. There's some configuration to change ( enable Windows Developer mode) and maybe set git config core.symlinks true as well, but not sure. I'd like the opinion of someone who knows Windows better to confirm this. Is there a Core windows testing person?

@0xB10C @jurraca The latest_asmap file exists primarily so we have a constant link to the latest file on GitHub for download that can be shared/documented like in the seeds readme: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/contrib/seeds I tested this initially but GitHub doesn't follow symlinks so even if it would work on windows we still couldn't make it a symlink. Maybe there are more elegant ways to do this and I am happy to consider new idea but I don't want to add any additional dependency and this is simple and works for now.

fwiw: I now run one of my monitoring nodes with -asmap=latest_asmap.dat (being 1730210400)

Awesome! Please let us know if you see anything noteworthy, it will definitely be interesting for the embedding discussion in core.
