# Note that a non-standard transaction can only be included in a block if a
# miner agrees with it. For this to work one needs to use a node setup up
# for regtest so that you can mine your own blocks; unless you mine your own
# testnet/mainnet blocks.
# Node's config file requires:
#    regtest=1
#    acceptnonstdtxn=1
