A better way to bootstrap you node is to use seed node instead of persistent-peers.
A seed node continuously browse the network, searching for more peers not yet registers
This provide a more consistent and complete addressbook.
when using seed node, persistent-peers are not mandatory.
SEED_NODE = "[email protected]:25656"
sed -i.bak -E "s|^(seeds[[:space:]]+=[[:space:]]+).*$|\1\"${SEED_NODE}\"|" $HOME/.quicksilverd/config/config.toml
