lemon on Nostr: Is it possible to build a simple website with a single text input and a submission ...
Is it possible to build a simple website with a single text input and a submission button where users can “guess” the nonce and on the back end it attempts to formally mine the block with that entry?
Obviously the probably of mining a block through this method is infinitesimal, but may be a useful tool for people to understand what mining is
Maybe even add a “I’m feeling lucky” button like Google where it randomly generates the “guess” so people can mine bitcoin through a website with a single click of a button
