Re: testnet drama.
Last I checked, there was about 1 EH (1,000 PH) of sha256d hashrate for rent through on an easy API. If you really oppose what Jameson Lopp (npub17u5…t4tp) is doing, you can do the following:
- Set up a testnet node.
- On that node, use the invalidateblock RPC to locally reject blocks that you think Lopp created.
- Setup a Stratum v1 server and connect it to your testnet node.
- Rent hashrate and point it at your stratum server.
That should be enough, but if someone tries to exploit the testnet difficulty drop to create long reorgs, set the time on your testnet node to 119 minutes in the future.
But, if you want to be productive, I suggest just switching to signet.
