Expensive RPC. CPU- or scan-heavy. Cached and rate-limited per IP to keep the node healthy. Public execution is disabled for this RPC. It will reopen to authenticated users in a future release.
Call from your own code

Replace $BITCOIN_RPC_USER / $BITCOIN_RPC_PASSWORD with credentials from your bitcoind's bitcoin.conf, and replace localhost:8332 with your node's RPC address. You can't run this RPC against our node, but you can run it against your own bitcoind.
