Title: [ANN] bitcoindata.science | sponsored by l0tt0.com Post by: bitmover on March 17, 2023, 02:59:26 PM I redesigned and wrote the entire site and code from scratch.
I decided to create this ANN to centralize all discussions related to all tools here. It is now much faster, I fixed bugs and there are some new features, such as Dark/Light Mode. https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/07/31/QpMeD.png https://bitcoindata.science/ (https://bitcoindata.science/) I noticed that Address Balance Checker and Unit Converter are the most used tools, and I improved their UI and code. I removed tools which didn't have much users or were bugged. I temporarily removed funded addresses (data provided by LoyceV) and I will add it again when I have fixed a few bugs in the code. And the Transaction Size calculator need to be improved. I also added a new section for donations (https://bitcoindata.science/donate.html)where I added both users which helped me make this website stay online: Timelord2067 and examplens.

Website looks very good but I think I noticed small bug in Giveaway Manage page, all other pages have dark/light switch, except Giveaway Manage page.Only way to make this page dark is using some extensions like Dark Reader, so you might want to add switch there if possible. Since there is no top menu bar on that page it's not easy to return to main page with click, so you should also fix that.

That is very important in many aspects. at the moment, there is only somewhere in the middle a link to the page with donations, and someone who sees this thread for the first time would have to copy/paste or enter the web address manually. I'm glad to see the improvement of the site, it means that you have also progressed with your skills, so you have noticed shortcomings that you can change.

Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: LoyceV on March 19, 2023, 09:49:19 AM Address Balance Checker (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5272068.0) Any new ideas on this?When I do a local search to find matching addresses, it doesn't really matter much for the search time whether it's 1 or a million addresses. I'm pretty sure using a database would be much faster to get one address, but I don't know if it can beat the speed of searching a text-file for a million matches. TXT search speed is ok. THe problem is downloading the database. I would like to avoid that. I will try to figure something out.It would be really cool if you can just enter a million addresses and get the balances (okay, yesterday's balances) quickly after uploading the 40 MB list. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: Mr.Member on March 19, 2023, 03:30:36 PM Surely this website of yours will be of great benefit to the members. But I think it would benefit from making your giveaway management a little bigger here.

I believe the only way to do that would be to use my own node to get the data. For now, I am using blockchain data from third party nodes (mempool.space and blockcypher). And both of them have limits. After some requests you get blocked, and neither of them allow you to request multiple addresses at once. Do you still have a server running a full node? I never worked with a full node, but I can try to make an API for it that would allow such requests. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: dzungmobile on March 20, 2023, 06:09:11 AM @bitmover
How about this idea for new notification from Bitcoindata.science? I knew you have a page for finding your tx in mempool. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5445625.msg61944616#msg61944616 Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: LoyceV on March 20, 2023, 09:28:22 AM Do you still have a server running a full node? Yes.Quote I never worked with a full node, but I can try to make an API for it that would allow such requests. I don't think Bitcoin Core can do this directly, but there are some python scripts to dump address data. I think it comes from chainstate, so it may also work on a pruned node.Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: RickDeckard on April 09, 2023, 08:21:56 PM Once again, excellent work on the website @bitmover. It has been sitting on my bookmarks ever since I found out about it and it keeps getting redesigned and better aimed for its purpose. How did the campaign with the advertisement went before the redesign? I seem to remeber that you had a traffic page where you had all the statistics about the page visitors but I can't seem to find it on the new page. Are you considering running some other kind of advertisement or are you rellying on future donations? Considering the adopting around the giveaway manager, would it be a suitable candidate to have some kind of banner from a current service being advertised on bitcointalk?
As a second observation, I believe you have the wrong URL leading up to the "Giveaway Manager" menu button since it is redirecting to the transaction size option[1] instead of the actual giveaway manager option. The header button is working as intended.

I didn't accept, as I don't think those services are any good for the community and it could harm my website reputation. I hope you don't take as an offense but instead only as a suggestion, but would you consider approaching the services instead of waiting for an offer? I see it as a freelancer - whenever anyone starts doing freelancer he/she can't just wait for the clients to appear but instead has to give everything that he/she can to be seen, either from sending mass CV's per e-mail, scheduling meetings with potential clients, amongst other similar actions. I am in no way saying that you aren't well regarded in the community - who am I to say that? - but as everything in life that is starting out, sometimes we have to make ourselves be seen.I also expected that betting companies would like to advertise on the giveaway manager, but I received no offers so far! I see your website as a resemblance to this scenario. My suggestion is for you to approach a company that you see fit and inquiry if the service wouldn't be interested in trying out advertising in your website for 1/2 weeks for free of charge. The worst you can do is that you won't have any kind of revenue during that time, other than that I don't see how you can incur in extra costs for making that. After that initial period you can ask the service if the company saw any advantage in having their banner in your page and then you can discuss things further. Will you give 1/2 weeks as free exposure? For sure. Will it pay off? Who knows? At least you tried and explored that possibility. And if that service doesn't accept being there, move on to the next one until you've made contact with a few of them. Who knows what will happen? As a final note, and for the sake of transparency, I think it's always interesting to see the statistics of the website as an outside service/company. It is something that will always be asked and you can already provide it even before the initial discussions :). Thank you for pointing this out. Just fixed! Thank you for the quick fix! Everything is working as intended now.Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: light_warrior on April 14, 2023, 02:34:35 PM I tried the Bitcoin Address Balance Checker feature and I think there is one little thing missing. It would be nice if it was possible to clear the address form without reloading the browser page itself. And even reloading the checker page still leaves one address in the form. It would be more convenient, IMHO.

I will add a button to clear the form and the output, that is a good suggestion.

I'm not really sure how many visitors you are getting every day/month but without having a significant amount of visitors, it's pretty hard to get a sponsor. I have been working on a platform, they have a good amount of visitors but they barely get some good sponsors. I have read your earlier post. If you want to get a sponsor, you either have to lower your standard (which I think you won't, there's no point in promoting possible scams) or have to reach a lot of projects (I doubt it will be worth your time).I would rather prefer a pop-up promoting your donation address with something like- Loved our stats? Feel free to be a part of the project. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: coupable on April 14, 2023, 06:26:03 PM I had give up getting any sponsor but I will consider your suggestions. The rest of the members who want to help and who cannot donate financially, can promote the donation link in any way possible. I run a local Facebook group that specializes in crypto. I will introduce the site and encourage visitors to use it. Thank you for the great work that you do for the community, and thanks to all the supporters, whether who supports with money or with useful suggestions.

I was wondering if there's a possibility of adding a feature on the unit converter that'd allow users to easily copy a code, in order to show dynamic fiat values of certain Bitcoin amounts on threads of this forum? - AFAICR, all of the other alternatives from the past were limited to USD only and I'm looking for a way to use other fiat currencies in local boards.

Do you guys see any use for an API like this? Code: https://bitcoindata.science/api/addressbalance.php?address=3CrySAp8G1PfvjrYT4HPQhE8MouBKWd9WB¤cy=PHP It takes 2 parameters, address and currency. It will show BTC balance and fiat value. It is already working, I will prepare the documentation. I am having some nice ideas with those API, to implement in the future. I am open for suggestions.

There's definitely a use for it, but it'd probably be used on a smaller scale in contrast to the previous one... The first thing that comes to my mind is donation campaigns [e.g. this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5387906.0) or this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5334727.0)], and then some of the games in the games and rounds sub-board [it can also be used on the collectibles sub-board for special cases].Code: https://bitcoindata.science/api/addressbalance.php?address=3CrySAp8G1PfvjrYT4HPQhE8MouBKWd9WB¤cy=PHP - Now I'm jealous (I wish I knew how to do such things as well) :) Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: LoyceV on April 26, 2023, 07:29:30 AM Code: https://bitcoindata.science/api/addressbalance.php?address=3CrySAp8G1PfvjrYT4HPQhE8MouBKWd9WB¤cy=PHP Question: how does it work with updates: are they real-time?

And if so: does the forum proxy not cache the old version? Yes, real time. However, there are no updates.Once you make the request, the old image is deleted and a new one is created.

Progress is also visible. ;) I would also add the creation of HTML code here. Let it be helpful outside the Bitcointalk forum when you have already created this service. It can be very useful for bloggers, and you can get quality backlinks. Suppose you can visually separate the part that refers to printing the value of Bitcoin from this part that deals with printing the address balance. With different backgrounds, some frames or simple lines, it's easier on the eye. Also, in this previous suggestion post, maybe you just skipped it... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5445282.msg62152709#msg62152709 I believe that it would be a very useful tool for campaign managers to set the price of bitcoins, at the moment when they were doing the calculation. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: bitmover on May 08, 2023, 03:14:16 AM I just created one more API, which i believe may be useful in the recent days of crazy fees
https://bitcoindata.science/api/bitcoinfees.php (https://bitcoindata.science/local-price-to-image.html) This data is always updated from mempool.space I will create a few more , specially about transactions ID and their details, which I believe will be quite useful too.

I just spent some time on your site, I really like the new design. I like the fact that the giveaway manager is listed at the top, as you know I use it regularly and before I always had to find your post with the link to find it (I never thought to bookmark it). It's really cool! The "Local price to image" page is great! Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: rdluffy on May 09, 2023, 08:08:15 PM Hey bitmover, nice update, I always use your service to see my transaction fees and time to confirm
I always wanted this tool to use in my threads: https://bitcoindata.science/api/addressbalance.php?address=bc1qme0wmgqy90elkle07vamvff4yafzwfh6z03sf3¤cy=BRL (https://bitcoindata.science/local-price-to-image.html) Let's suppose I'll do a raffle like that one in World Cup where users sent me satoshis and I had to update the balance.

You can post only once Only confirmed transactions counts. I am glad you liked it. I think this is a useful tool , and I am thinking about how to share it with more people.

It will be very useful bitmover Now in a raffle thread we can use the Giveaway Manager and the Local Price to image With time people will discover and use it for more purposes it's nice because I don't have to leave the forum to view the balance of a wallet. I even tried a while ago to find some service that would put the balance of a wallet in an image, and another that would update this image every X minutes, but I couldn't.

Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: Crypto-NFT-Freedom on August 15, 2023, 07:25:01 AM Redesigning and redeveloping the entire site and code from scratch is no small feat, and it's clear that you've poured a lot of dedication and effort into it. Your commitment to refining the user experience and addressing bugs is commendable.
Creating a central hub for discussions related to all your tools is a smart move to streamline engagement and make it easier for users to find relevant information. The increased speed and addition of features like Dark/Light Mode demonstrate your responsiveness to user preferences and modern design trends. It's great to see that you're not only focused on the big picture but also paying attention to the smaller details. By enhancing the UI and code of the most frequently used tools, you're actively improving the experience for your users. And the decision to remove less-used or buggy tools shows your commitment to quality and efficiency. The fact that you're striving for excellence is evident in your temporary removal of the funded addresses tool and the Transaction Size calculator. It's smart to prioritize user experience and functionality, ensuring that these features will be reintroduced in a more refined state once you've resolved the issues. Your dedication to providing a useful and polished platform is truly commendable, and I have no doubt that your hard work will be appreciated by your users. The attention you've given to user feedback and your willingness to continuously improve the platform speak volumes about your commitment to delivering a top-notch experience. Keep up the fantastic work, and I'm excited to see your platform thrive and evolve. If you have any updates or further developments, I'd love to hear about them.

When creating the code for the address balance image, the entered address is not automatically transferred to the field with the final BBcode. Also, the "reload image" button does not make any changes. The API works normally, but it is necessary to manually edit the code in order to show the balance from the desired address.

You need to reload the page/image, then the data will update. That makes sense. Nobody would expect images posted on a forum to update without reloading the page.But it would be nice if the timestamp can also be displayed. That would remove the doubts for someone who just reads the whole context without knowing how the thing works. I would not ignore the purpose of this without an update after each refresh.

- Would it be possible to set the size of the generated image? - Would it be possible for you to create 2 or 3 standard background patterns, and the user can choose which one to use? EDIT: It's not for any special reason, just remind me of these possibilities. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: bitmover on November 21, 2023, 12:17:42 PM Remind me of something else: - Would it be possible to set the size of the generated image? Yes, you can do this manually on the front end. Using BBcode or HTML Code: [img width=500]https://bitcoindata.science/api/fiattobtc.php?fiatamount=1000¤cy=EUR&date&bold[/img] in HTML you can do this: Code: <img src=https://bitcoindata.science/api/fiattobtc.php?fiatamount=1000¤cy=USD&date&bold width=500/> Quote - Would it be possible for you to create 2 or 3 standard background patterns, and the user can choose which one to use? EDIT: It's not for any special reason, just remind me of these possibilities. Well, I can add some background HEX color codes... it might be useful in some situations, where you want to give more emphasis to the price. But the default transparent background will blend with the background, and you can already change the font color. For example, if you want to use a blue background in talkimg, you can just wrap it with a blue div: Code: <div style="background-color: #5e9cff"> Result https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/11/21/F5dL9.png Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science Post by: joker_josue on November 21, 2023, 02:09:55 PM Thank you for the tips.

As it is a GET request, each address goes into the URL parameter in the browser internally. It works like this. WHen you enter the addresses in the web page, your browser will make this request: Code: https://blockchain.info/balance?active=ADDRESS1|ADDRESS2..... The size of this URL becomes huge with a few addresses. Each browser has a different limit. 465 is a safe number, however, you might be able to make it work with more addresses using google chrome which has a higher limit (it also depends on the address formats, which may vary as well) You might find some more useful discussions here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2659952/maximum-length-of-http-get-request https://stackoverflow.com/questions/417142/what-is-the-maximum-length-of-a-url-in-different-browsers https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/maximum-length-of-a-url-in-different-browsers/ Edit: I also made a different code if you are using less than 20 addresses, using mempool.space. It is slower, but you will make one request for each address (so you will make a total of 20 requests). More than that, you will get block, so I use the other API from blockchair. Mempool.space API is better and gives more details about unconfirmed transactions as well.

I saw that in Security>>WAF there is an option to add custom rules to protect API and known bots from malicious traffic. Missing FeeBuddy ;) Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science | sponsored by BC.Game Post by: bitmover on March 28, 2024, 11:16:55 PM Yeah, CF blocked most bad traffic as far as I can see. However, it blocked Feebudy (which is a bot lol). I've been monitoring your total bandwidth for the last few days, it seems you have a bit more traffic compared to before the attack, but within tolerable limits.

Incredible number!! Never expected to reach that I miss fee buddy too. The point is that I am working in other projects too. I have a broken api in withdrawal strategy as well (coingecko decide to move to a paid plan model)... I will fix it and then I will see what I can do for feebuddy. I added some protection against bots, which is probably blocking him Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science | sponsored by BC.Game Post by: RickDeckard on April 20, 2024, 12:28:05 AM While it doesn't happen to me often, in some rare instances when I try to access the website I am presented with the following message:

You might be using adblocks or something like that which cloudflare may be asking for you to verify/challenge something to prove you are a human... I am slowing reducing those protections...

Perhaps some people would donate over LN if that option existed. I know it's not popular, but consider adding a stablecoin as well. Whether we like them or not, they are a sizable share of the market.

As soon as I hit a couple of refreshes the page loaded up fine to me afterwards and hasn't stop since. Probably has to do with some extensions that I use as well, like others said. Here is an idea: copy the code you posted and paste it into ChatGPT. Ask it to analyze the code and explain what it says and what could be causing it. Maybe the AI bot could shed some more light on it. From what I know, ChatGPT can read and generate code.Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science | sponsored by BC.Game Post by: RickDeckard on April 20, 2024, 11:35:06 AM The problem seems to appear very randomly and not that often.

From what I know, ChatGPT can read and generate code.This will probably will be paid in the feature (I can't see how DDG will sustain the long costs in the long term of this partnership), and I highly advise anyone to read the privacy policy regarding this feature[2], but for what is worth, at least for now, it is a good feature to have. While we are on this, just a note on this regard from their privacy policy: Quote We do not save or store your Prompts or Outputs. Additionally, all metadata that contains personal information (for example, your IP address) is obfuscated from underlying model providers (for example, OpenAI, Anthropic). If you submit personal information in your Prompts, it may be reproduced in the Outputs, but no one can tell whether it was you personally submitting the Prompts or someone else. (...) As noted above, we call model providers on your behalf so your personal information (for example, IP address) is not exposed to them. In addition, we have agreements in place with all model providers that further limit how they can use data from these anonymous requests that includes not using Prompts and Outputs to develop or improve their models as well as deleting all information received within 30 days.

I have not been able to generate a lightning network address yet I have used some wallets like aqua which doesn't allow LN permanent addresses. I will add it in the future, as LN becomes easier and safer to use. Stable coins is indeed interesting, but there are so many options... usdt erc20, trn20, bep20, etc etc..

I know. Everyone wants a piece of the action. I would say stick to the two most popular versions, which are USDT on Tron and Ethereum. DAI is another viable option due to its inability to be censored and frozen by the issuer like all other stablecoins.

I don't know about Aqua Wallet, but some wallets will generate an identical address for ERC20, Bep20 etc... Perhaps it could be a significant relief during use, at least for donations, while the possibility of an error sending to the wrong chain would be reduced to a minimum.

Yeah, it is possible to do that with ethereum and bnb... not tron. I don't think people will donate ethereum because fees are very high (usually higher than a donation).

Polygon is the way to go! You can move DAI USDT USDC or any stablecoin for less than $0.01 :) (bitmover, if you want to try this network I can send you some MATIC for the fees, just PM me your Polygon address) Title: Re: [ANN] bitcoindata.science | sponsored by BC.Game Post by: bitmover on April 21, 2024, 05:57:49 PM I don't think people will donate ethereum because fees are very high (usually higher than a donation).

Yeah, there are too many second layer too. I will add an ethereum address there and say that I can accept in other chains and layers and tokens too. I think it is a good idea!

I dont think that LN is ever going to be safe or easy to use at all, it's pain the ass actually :PAnd if anyone really wants to donate Lightning or any specific altcoin they can always contact you and ask for deposit address. For me Monero is the best option for donation and for privacy, it's what money and p2p payment system should be, and it has very low transaction fees. |
