WouterGlorieux··on Show HN: IPFS_dict_chain, a Python Package for Mini-Blockchains on IPFS
A little off-topic, but still worth mentioning, this package is based on some code I have been using in a few other projects, https://github.com/ValyrianTech/ValyrianSpellbook and https://www.thehivemind.com

I always wanted to make it into a separate package but never got around to it until now. This is the first package that I have developed with the help of GPT-4. Working with AI has been amazing and dramatically improved my productivity and code quality.

WouterGlorieux··on Show HN: Bitcoin Spellbook, an opensource back end server for Bitcoin apps
Hi all, i'm the developer of the Bitcoin Spellbook. It's a platform that lets you easily create the back-end for bitcoin applications. The basic idea is that you configure triggers and actions. A trigger can be based on the balance of a bitcoin address, the blockheight, the number of confirmations of a transaction or one of many more triggers available. There is also the option of creating HTTP GET, POST or DELETe endpoints to interact with a front-end.

Once a trigger activates, it can run a python script or execute one or more actions like sending a bitcoin transaction, sending an email or running a command etc...

So by combining certain triggers and actions you can create whatever bitcoin application you want to make. The source code also includes example apps like a bitcoin splitter service, a lottery, a notary service, an app to send dividends to investors and even a payment processor.

Besides that there are also a few command line tools like a transaction listener that can run a command when a given address sends or receives a transaction.
