As of now, May 26th, I can't reach testnet.programmingbitcoin.com on port 18333 anymore. The server isn't responding.

I have the same issue as of 8/7/2022. If I run the first example in Chapter 7, the code fails due to testnet.programmingbitcoin.com returning "502 Bad Gateway".

ValueError: unexpected response: <html>
<head><title>502 Bad Gateway</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>502 Bad Gateway</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx/1.21.6</center>
</body>
</html>

For my experiments with Bitcoin protocol, I ended up using another gateway: testnet-seed.bluematt.me, port 18333

I managed to solve it for the mainnet (mainnet.programmingbitcoin.com) following this example. The testnet seems to be not working.
