Show HN: Bitcoin-rs – An AI-assisted Bitcoin full node in Rust

8 pointsby 2h agogithub.com
5 comments
I’m building bitcoin-rs, an independent Bitcoin full node in Rust, using AI aggressively for implementation.

I think Bitcoin is a particularly good target for AI-era development because implementations can be verified against strong external references. In bitcoin-rs, I use libbitcoinkernel as one of the main compatibility oracles.

There's obvious synergy here to build a self-sustaining ecosystem-annihilator:

    10 Burn AI tokens to develop cryptocurrencies
    20 Burn down the rain forest to calculate sha256 faster
    30 Sell sha256 hashes to finance AI buildout
    40 GOTO 10

Our whole capitalism system is working exactly the same way with few more steps.
