Frequently Asked Questions
How does it get the blockheight?
It makes a call to an endpoint maintained on a server here, it's just a .txt file with the current blockheight. There's cronjob that populates that from a nearby Bitcoin node on our network.
Does it support any other blockchains? Like Ethereum?
No. Next question.
Does it update the blockheight for a post when it is revised?
Not yet. This may be added if there is any demand for it.
