This my third time engaging with #nostr. Each time is been better and more vibrant. 👏🏾👏🏾
A joy to experience the network effect play out in real time.
Here to stay this time.

You give me hashes, I'll give you bitcoin.
Chris Belcher described a payout construction for P2Pool back in the day that allowed P2Pool to scale. There was a problem, the construction required a central hub. Wth FROST we can replace the centralised hub with a federation. That was an intuition I had for almost a year now. I finally found the time and I think I have it figured out. Will share something soon.
Meanwhile here's Belcher's construction:

Braidpool development update:
1. Add Connection management
2. Add channels and queues for broadcasting to connected peers
3. Improvements to config parsing
Lesson: A lot of rust crates have poor test coverage and aren't maintained well.

Connection management, broadcasts and more Rust
Last week I focused on setting up components for managing connections and adding support for broadcasting messages to all connected nodes. I also r...
Bitcoin peer to peer mining. #anarchy
We don't need a hierarchy!

Peer to peer network is anarchy in action.
There is no hierarchy in p2p networks.
That's why I don't like structured peer to peer network protocols - they try to build some sort of hierarchy.
Slowly but surely, we are building braidpool. Loads of infrastructure and ground work put in place.
Here's this week's dev update
