Sure! I'm new to rebasing, so it's taking a while. edit: ok , I'm starting to understand this thing. It seems I was doing it reverse (I assumed merge and rebase where equivalent, which is not the case). I'll let you know when I'm done. |

It seems that I managed to rebase the branch. Let me know if there's sth else I need to do from here. |

Ok, I'll do that and open a new PR. Cheers! |

Created a new PR from a fresh dev branch, but I still see many conflicts ... if that's not correct I'll start from a fresh fork altogether. |

The idea of this pull request is to have a service menu item to download the Bitcoin whitepaper from the blockchain into the Raspiblitz easily.
This adds a new item in the "additional services" menu to enable (download whitepaper) or disable (remove whitepaper) the service.
Also, this PR adds the command 'whitepaper' to the command line, which is a shortcut to enabling the service.
The paper is downloaded to:
/home/admin/bitcoin.pdf
The command used for the download is this one:
sudo -u bitcoin bitcoin-cli getblock 00000000000000ecbbff6bafb7efa2f7df05b227d5c73dca8f2635af32a2e949 0 | tail -c+92167 | for ((o=0;o<946;++o)) ; do read -rN420 x ; echo -n ${x::130}${x:132:130}${x:264:130} ; done | xxd -r -p | tail -c+9 | head -c184292 > $DownloadPath/$WhitepaperFilename
