Support extended mempool.space API

Open notmandatory opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

This issue was triggered by an discord discussion with @wiz.

The mempool.space project provides an extended API on top of the blockstream electrs server API. In particular it offers improved fee and mempool data. The public mempool.space service could also be used in bdk documentation and testing, the service currently supports mainnet and testnet, and in the future will support signet.

Onion endpoints can be found with these commands:

curl -si https://mempool.space|grep -i onion        
onion-location: http://mempoolhqx4isw62xs7abwphsq7ldayuidyx2v2oethdhhj6mlo2r6ad.onion/

curl -si https://mempool.space/testnet | grep -i onion
onion-location: http://mempoolhqx4isw62xs7abwphsq7ldayuidyx2v2oethdhhj6mlo2r6ad.onion/testnet

This could be solved by providing documentation and examples as described in bitcoindevkit/bdk_wallet#140 .
