"Amidst attention-grabbing headlines this week that will be talked about for decades, I want to bring your attention to one far more profound and awe-inspiring non-headline: every 10 minutes a new bitcoin block was produced. Every 10 minutes. Every 10 minutes."

can this block explorer be self hosted?

Yes.

Yes … available on umbrel - as long as you link to your own bitcoin node somehow it will display the data

It looks like Bitfeed, which is right in the App Library for Umbrel nodes.

Yes. I run it on my umbrel node. It is often running on a second screen. It kind of calms me down 😁

Persistant beacon in a sea of noise.

Surely not every 10 minutes? That would obsolete the whole banking system.

Yeah cool... I'm already measuring time in blocks...
