In the spirit of learning by doing, I decided to implement a simple blockchain
server. More work remains, but I'm tired after working on this for ~2-3h. I'd
like to reimplement this from memory using a statically typed language like
Haskell. I'd also like to implement node
discovery (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Satoshi_Client_Node_Discovery) because
that is still something I don't quite understand. But I'm signing-off for
now...
