I decided to spend the holidays learning more about Golang and Bitcoin in order to expand my knowledge of cryptocurrency a bit and it was lots of fun. I started out running a Bitcoind full node and decided to try the Golang Bitcoin node called btcd which worked surprisingly well but had some more problems.
My next goal is to turn this into an open source block explorer that not only works for Bitcoin but many different cryptocurrencies. I need to add support for using the notify command of bitcoind and add a nice search function.
My full node can be seen here https://uberblock.co/ and the code for my stats page can be found here https://github.com/markustenghamn/uberblock
I would love your comments and feedback!
