I did the following:
1. Send a version msg with relay = 0 (don't get inv messages until filterload)
2. Response to version from node with verack
3. Wait for verack from node

Now I'm ready to talk to the server
1. Send an empty filterload
--> I start getting some Inv messages back. I thought I shouldn't get any but maybe it's for DoS protection?
2. Send a filteradd message passing a pubkey where I've got a few mbtc

Still getting inv messages...
Basically, how should I get the actual transactions so that I can calculate the balance?

Thanks,
