Maybe it's mind game, all bot busy for find test , and newly bots maybe also block by ping many times, and in background they play real 66 bit puzzle transaction Smiley
A professional bot definitely does not use mempool.space or similar APIs. It uses its own node, so blocking is only for inexperienced bots that use third-party APIs.

You actually need full-node distro. And mempool in local network .You should use a separate machine just for that, and another very powerful machine for the Bot and BSGS/Keyhunt.   Grin

So, how many machines you have ?  Undecided

Five just in my room. Grin

What you talking about? I do it with just my Ryzen 9 3900x with VMs when needed.

I have UmbrelOS with a node and mempool on a separate machine, which can be a NUC or any small PC (with 1TB drive for node). I don't want to waste RAM with VMs on a machine with a BSGS server.

So, you host entire Bitcoin blocks—600 GB—locally?  Roll Eyes

Can you read? Yes, I just wrote that above. By running a node, you support the Bitcoin network. You can experiment with Bitcoin-related applications directly.....
