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 that’s about it. It needs to be bulletproof. 🐶🐾🤔 #asknostr

Can’t you just take these directly from your own Bitcoin core?
Not bulletproof 🐶🐾🫡

Mempool Space? https://mempool.space/docs/api/rest
What does bulletproof mean here? I’m a little scared. 😅
Looks good, but I couldn’t find info about the rate they allow for a free access. I may have missed it in the docs 🐶🐾🤔
Depends on what rate limit they apply 🐶🐾🫡
Means that it doesn’t go down for maintenance purposes 🐶🐾🫡
Yeah I don't see it. You can always host an instance
Not bulletproof, hence the question 🐶🐾🫡
I think I’ll use AWS AMB for that🐶🐾🫡🤣
Ahh
Ok, let me repeat what I wrote again, “bulletproof”. Neither your or my instances qualify 🐶🐾😭🤣
It’s about reliability, not the number 🐶🐾🤣
Too complex, I will go with AWS Bitcoin AMB Serverless. Cheap and works! 🐶🐾🫡
