Summary

• BSQ requested: 4320
• BSQ address: B17TT6PsriwSLoKDnybE4LoDazkffQxtx3G

Contributions delivered

• created scripts to automate regtest setup for DAO local testing. The script is prompting the user for Alice's and Bob's address and creates the genesis TX for them, spins up a regtest bitcoind and mines blocks accordingly. There are scripts to spin up bitcoind, seed node, alice and bob. See Add scripts to autosetup dao on regtest bisq#2405 - requesting 563 BSQ
• helped edit the source code for https://explorer.bisq.network/testnet/ to run on DAO testnet after bitcoin testnet became unusable - requesting 25 BSQ
• set up a block explorer for bisq DAO testnet chain reachable at http://bisq.info. Created an easy to deploy docker image for the dao with branding so it is not confused with other block explorer. Detailed documentation at: https://github.com/KanoczTomas/esplora/blob/dao-testnet/DAO.md - requesting 3582 BSQ
• hosting the DAO testnet block explorer at http://bisq.info - requesting 50 BSQ

Notes for self:

• Using ZeroMQ instead or in parallel with bitcoind's blocknotify for DAO full nodes proposals#73 - zeroMQ proposal - check status
• create new proposal for archiving see Host downloads on self-managed server proposals#72, we diverted from the topic, so I was asked to create a new proposal - todo
