If we use a chain backend that only understands IP addresses (like Neutrino for example), we need to turn any Onion v2 host addresses into a fake IPv6 representation, otherwise it would be resolved incorrectly. To do this, we use the same fake IPv6 address format that bitcoind and btcd use internally to represent Onion v2 hidden service addresses. |

tor
The tor package contains utility functions that allow for interacting with the Tor daemon. So far, supported functions include:
- Routing all traffic over Tor's exposed SOCKS5 proxy.
- Routing DNS queries over Tor (A, AAAA, SRV).
- Limited Tor Control functionality (synchronous messages only). So far, this
includes:
- Support for SAFECOOKIE, HASHEDPASSWORD, and NULL authentication methods.
- Creating v2 and v3 onion services.
In the future, the Tor Control functionality will be extended to support v3 onion services, asynchronous messages, etc.
