## Fuzzing the Bitcoin Core P2P layer using Honggfuzz NetDriver
Honggfuzz NetDriver allows for very easy fuzzing of TCP servers such as Bitcoin
Core without having to write any custom fuzzing harness. The `bitcoind` server
process is largely fuzzed without modification.
This makes the fuzzing highly realistic: a bug reachable by the fuzzer is likely
also remotely triggerable by an untrusted peer.
To quickly get started fuzzing the P2P layer using Honggfuzz NetDriver:
```sh
$ mkdir bitcoin-honggfuzz-p2p/
$ cd bitcoin-honggfuzz-p2p/
$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
$ cd bitcoin/
$ ./autogen.sh
$ git clone https://github.com/google/honggfuzz
$ cd honggfuzz/
$ make
$ cd ..
