Bitcoin Miner

RPC Connections

Context

This was a short project to see if I could hook my computer up to the Bitcoin network and start mining. However, the Bitcoin core is a 400GB download and requires an extra 5-10GB each month. Also, because of increasing mining difficulty, I could expect to earn negligible rewards even if I did fully complete the process. The project uses URLLib to request RPC urls, catch errors and parse URLs. I used the python random module to generate a random RPC call id. app.py constructs an RPC call and sends a request. To build this project, I followed a Medium article, shown on my Github.
