🚀 Version 3.0.0 Release

We’re excited to announce the release of Version 3.0.0! This update brings significant improvements and new features to enhance your experience with the Bitcoin dashboard. Here’s what’s new:

What’s New:

• Last Miner in Best Block View:

  • The best block view now displays the last miner, giving you better insights into block production.

• Hash Rate Distribution Chart:

  • A brand-new toggleable chart in the Blockchain section shows the distribution of hash rate over the past 24 hours.
  • Features:
    • Toggle between the original metrics and the chart using the h key.
    • Displays up to the Top 8 miners of x rewarded in the past 144 blocks.
    • Tracks data from the moment the dashboard loads (no historical data is loaded).

• miners.json Support:

  • A new miners.json file allows you to map coinbase wallet addresses to miner names.
  • This file is loaded at runtime and can be maintained by end-users.
  • Place miners.json in the same folder as the executable (default location if running from the Blockchaininfo parent folder).

• Dependency Updates:

  • Updated serde to v1.0.219.
  • Updated once_cell to v1.21.0.

How to Update:

1. Run cargo update to update dependencies.
2. Run cargo build --release to build the latest version.

Roadmap Teaser:

We’re already working on the next big feature: a Fee Histogram! This will provide deeper insights into transaction fees and mempool dynamics. Stay tuned for more updates!
