What is the good, free and very reliable API to get bitcoin blockchain/mempool info? I mainly need current block height, average block processing time and thatโs about it. It needs to be bulletproof. ๐ถ๐พ๐ค #asknostr

Canโt you just take these directly from your own Bitcoin core?
Not bulletproof ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก

Mempool Space? https://mempool.space/docs/api/rest
What does bulletproof mean here? Iโm a little scared. ๐
Looks good, but I couldnโt find info about the rate they allow for a free access. I may have missed it in the docs ๐ถ๐พ๐ค
Depends on what rate limit they apply ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก
Means that it doesnโt go down for maintenance purposes ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก
Yeah I don't see it. You can always host an instance
Not bulletproof, hence the question ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก
Sure does, not a rocket science ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก
I think I found one already actually, AWS AMB seems to be promising and affordable ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก
I think Iโll use AWS AMB for that๐ถ๐พ๐ซก๐คฃ
Ahh
Ok, let me repeat what I wrote again, โbulletproofโ. Neither your or my instances qualify ๐ถ๐พ๐ญ๐คฃ
Itโs about reliability, not the number ๐ถ๐พ๐คฃ
Too complex, I will go with AWS Bitcoin AMB Serverless. Cheap and works! ๐ถ๐พ๐ซก
