id love to see something like this out in the wild- new paradigm for PoW https://github.com/powrespecter/nostr_pow_service

wat is pow in nostr context
Guessing it’s the same as anything, you hash a message and achieve something specific in the hashed output - often leading zeros. The more unlikely the output, the harder it probably was. I saw something the other day where Nostr messages got PoW added to them to filter out spam.
one particular thing i’d love to have for TAO is the ability to outsource & pay for PoW of your note, as well as run a PoW service on a beefier machine you have that plugs into your phone using the same system.
