Utility to generate the seeds.txt list that is compiled into the client (see src/chainparamsseeds.h and other utilities in contrib/seeds).

curl -s https://github.com/cevap/ion/raw/development/contrib/seeds/seeds.tar.gz | gzip -dc > seeds_main.txt
python3 makeseeds.py < seeds_main.txt > nodes_main.txt
python3 generate-seeds.py . > ../../src/chainparamsseeds.h

sudo apt-get install python3-dnspython
