so... this just looks like establishing a list of banned UTXOs with more steps.
I'd rather have 1mb blocks than a list of transactions that can't be spent.
where is @Solomonsatoshi to tell us all why the west is doomed to fail in competition with this?
it seems like they were caught by an undercover, posing as a cartel member. so, there may not be a higher up...
so, while I commend the investigation for finding crooked DEA employees, this effort appears to mainly be an internally focused effort. on some measure, that's just taking competition away from the "narco terror" teams outside the US govt ;)
I got a late start, something paperwork related as I remember.. could have been on my side, tho
starting late resulted in being me out of sync with my cohort, so.. wait, I started on time, then fell out of sync somehow.
out of sync meant the team was already past me in terms of progression through the learning objectives.
anyway, being out of sync had advantages and disadvantages. but ChainCode does a good job of helping you get back to sync, if you're willing to do the work.
that's the big part of it, (and honestly separates the hungry and capable from the rest) if you don't show up for it, you don't go anywhere with it. they put all sorts of resources right in front of you + nearly 24/7 support to help get you unstuck... and it is totally free to use, but in order to get the benefits you must use it.
anyway, I liked it. theres a choice between bitcoin or lightning studies around the halfway point, I chose bitcoin. if I went thru a 2nd time, I'd do lightning to learn more.
oh, it was awesome to get some rust exposure too... and python, oof
