A block that was proposed to commit Transactions in `transaction_list` to the
ledger with a nonce that made `hash` valid; 6 zeroes at the left hand side of the
hash (24 bytes).

We are _mining_ using [blake2s](https://www.blake2.net/) algorithm, which produces 256 bit hashes. Hash/second is roughly 20x10^3 on my machine, a new block can be mined in around 4-6 minutes.

# Requests

## GET
A HTTP `GET` request to [/block](/block) endpoint will return the latest mined block.

## POST

A HTTP `POST` request with Authorization using JWT will allow you to propose your own blocks.

# Fields
```
transaction_list: [array of Fingerprints]
nonce: unsigned 32-bit integer
timestamp: ISO 8601 <date>T<time>
hash: String
```
