    CashScript Playground and Its Updates

    The CashScript Playground, an online IDE for writing CashScript smart contracts, has introduced a new 'MockNet' option. This feature allows users to create virtual UTXOs and validate smart contract transactions locally, providing precise error messages. 'MockNet' is unique as no other tooling for Bitcoin-like blockchains currently offers this developer experience. Inspired by Ethereum’s Remix, the CashScript Playground enables users to easily import/export contract artifacts, test new versions of CashScript code, and create multiple contract instances with different arguments, streamlining the smart contract development process.

    Pickynode 0.2.1 Released

    A new version of Pickynode (0.2.1) has been released, introducing several updates and improvements. The Ruby gem now supports all Ruby versions past 2.5 and is compatible with both Bitcoin Cash and BTC. The API has been updated to pull data from Blockchair, and dependencies have been updated as well. Pickynode allows users to easily add, connect, ban, or disconnect Bitcoin nodes based on user agents, providing a simple way to be selective about the nodes they connect to.
