Sometimes I wonder if miners say, “That’s nonce sense.”
If not, they should.

We need more of nostr:npub1ejvhdkt8ppefezgz0sgnwdqrn8l4z8muws2k8dz2tv0a57ac2z9st56q8x on RHR, nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgewaehxw309aek2mnyd96zumn0wdnxcctjv5hxxmmd94lnue nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy
It’s true, the people have spoken
What I say upon walking into the room to see my bitaxe has still not found a block:
In middle earth they unironically say: "That's Nonce, Ents"
I'll take this opportunity to ask a question that I'm too lazy to Google!
Where is the nonce in the block?
I'm guessing that it's an arbitrarily long string that is appended to the end of the block
I ask because I sometimes wonder how pre-Segwit nodes can accept the witness data in the Segwit blocks. Do those old nodes see it as simply a big nonce?
Or maybe I'm wrong, and those old nodes really do just take the first 1MB of each block, truncating the witness data?
