🚨 PROOF OF CONCEPT: GPU-NIP13-Miner

PoC demonstrating GPU makes NIP-13 proof-of-work unviable.

GPU bots are 50x+ faster than CPUs:
β€’ CPU: 1.18M/s
β€’ NVIDIA GPU: 60M/s

Any GPU bot has massive advantage over CPU users, making NIP-13 ineffective as anti-spam.

I enhanced the #Plurcast --nostr-pow (#NIP13) implementation by using a custom mining setup rather than the library's .pow method, so now it's multithreaded and finishes quicker.

#Plurcast now supports --nostr-pow, enabling #NIP13 to embed proof of work into your Nostr notes. The previous note had a --nostr-pow 22 and took maybe 10-15 seconds to mine.
