Hey
Thanks for doing that! It came many times to my mind.
There were efforts on implementing Tor relay in Golang before, by
Tom van der Woerdt:
https://github.com/tvdw/gotor
Have you looked at the project?
In his blog post
https://tvdw.eu/blog/2015/01/24/implementing-a-tor-relay-from-scratch/
Tom described some issues he faced with during this work and a list of
lessons learnt.
