maybe, might be cool.
i will keep it in mind, but its too early for anything right now.

since im doing it from scratch and not just forking core, it might take a loong time.

my main goals are:
- improving the way blockchain is stored, compress it using various methods. my goal is lowering it under 100 GB.
- have new experimental commands like handshake for where to use gzip and bulk commands. so compress and lower the bandwidth as well.
- built-in indexing. first create a light probabilistic index, then when demanded index data for real, and use that light index to make it faster. then cache it.
- support and implement, "electrum" and "bitcoin rpc" endpoints.
- a decent built-in wallet.
- mempool-space like interface to explore your mempool and the blockchain on your node.
- built-in support for stratum endpoint to solo mine easily using your own node. (maybe a small cpu miner built in as well if you wanna play impossible lottery, it might encourage people to buy miners like bitaxe if they see their chances).
- nice clean sleek ui
- during initial sync acts like a lite node, so you can use it before its fully synced as well.
- sandboxed (wasm) plugin support, for things like DATUM, and mempool filters, and relaying logic. maybe plugins for different strategies to calculate estimated fee as well. etc.
- nostr marketplace for the plugins.

idk if i can do it, we will see.
