Beginning to work on actually implementing yield. I would guess it'll take me about a week. It's been a crazy week here so I haven't had a bunch of time to code and I'm beginning to get depressed as a result lol.

I basically need to:

record every sat we earn with a timestamp, which we currently do for everything but the job board right now
yield algo by either modifying the existing trust scores to have a more aggressive decay, or compute another trust score specifically for yield that's bound to within days to weeks rather than months
notifications for users having earned yield
display the data in 1 on the satistics page for the job poster

After this I really need to get back to basics because things like notifications continue to be slow and there's a bunch of stuff in the backlog that deserves attention.

Good luck is all I can say. Building web apps is a rather endless job. You have a good user base though!

I'm looking for a Docker container of Bitcoin core that can run in regtest mode. Has anyone had any luck with this image: https://hub.docker.com/r/ruimarinho/bitcoin-core/

I haven't used that image. I use Polar for regtest lightning nodes, but it supports all these docker images https://github.com/jamaljsr/polar/tree/master/docker
