I know a lot is going on right now, but I finally made some time last weekend to simulate and compare some sponsoring solutions and a possible TXHASH stacking algorithm. Findings look interesting!
While y'all are checking the bitcoin price, I've got some wisdom for you developers: Bitcoin Core's wallet seems to be crazy slow. It takes my beefy machine 4.5 seconds to generate 100 blocks to an address in the wallet. It takes <0.01 sec to generate to a random address.
I've been noticing more and more websites and services block people using a VPN. It annoys me a lot. nixos.wiki for example block all VPN traffic. Now it seems you can't watch YouTube videos without logging in anymore. The internet is literally getting worse and worse every year. image
