Raspiblitz: Running the numbers .. validate show how many Bitcoins are issued

[rootzoll]

Either do it once this is merged into bitcoind: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19521 or do it the manual way.

LMAO there we go

Can be done easily by Specter 0.8 that will be part of the v1.6.1 release:

But maybe also having that part of the LCD infoscreen would be nice :)

It is a quite CPU intense to be just run automatically imo.
Specter integrates it nicely or can be called from the cli any time.

if blockfilterindex=1 in bitcoin.confis set ... ist that just a small update per new block?
@fjahr how intensive is that for a RaspberryPi to regularly poll gettxoutsetinfo with blockfilterindex=1? Too much load?

[openoms]

The blockfilterindex=1 is to do with the BIP158 (client-side-filtering - Neutrino) block filters, not the UTXO set.
The coinstat features which will include ongoing low resource gettxoutsetinfo monitoring is still WIP. Just listened: https://stephanlivera.com/episode/214/ ;)

Correct :) It's still going to need some time until https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19521 is going to be merged I guess.

When it's integrated it's only very little additional load, should be about 1 second to update the index on a slow machine after a block has been validated but I haven't benchmarked it lately. Then getting the values from gettxoutsetinfo just reads the records from the index. The change is very much aimed at making it possible to enable continuous polling of gettxoutsetinfo on a low powered machine like RPi3. Only having the index catch up initially will take a couple of hours.

Ah OK .. mixed those indexes up :) So we will monitor if https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19521 gets merged and then consider to add continuous polling for displaying to the user. @fjahr thanks for the work
