NotATether brother has given a challenge to run a bitcoin node for 14 days, promising to give 14 merits and he is doing it.Here the rules of at least 30 activities and 50 posts have been kept to participate.It shows that many new account openers quickly complete 50 posts and create 30 activities in just a few days and join here for 14 merit hunts.Which takes shape like pumking and pizza contest is not a problem. Since they are in the rules.
Since it takes up to 14 days to download a 700GB+ Bitcoin node, a desktop or laptop needs to be kept on for around 14 days. So anyone can be given 14 merit to complete it because it is not a very easy task.
- You must have at least 30 activity and 50 posts to participate.
- "Brand New" rank accounts are not allowed to particpate.
And because of these two rules here. No one can participate in this challenge immediately by creating a new account. Because completing 50 posts is very time consuming
I have 2 questions......
- how to know with Blockchaininfo code what % of nodes are downloaded because I can't find the progress rate in the coding
I have found the answer to one of your two questions so far
"verificationprogress": 0.9991033317851601,
Notice here within your post there is an option called verificationprogress. This shows how % complete your download is.
