CONSENSUS
Okay Miner! We've made it this far! The hash function coming up
already has the previous block's hash and our merkle root already
fired up. All we need now is to find the nonce. Keep adding
numbers or letters until you get a value under Bitcoin's target.
Let's pull up Bitcoin's latest target.
Add as many letters and or numbers until you recieve desired output
(18 leading zero's).
Keep track of how many hash attempts it takes to find the nonce. CLICK BELOW.
