As I asked in similar thread the other day, what about proof of work based CAPTCHA like https://github.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha - which I didn't actually see on any site. Is it used? Since CAPTCHAs can be solved by bots, at least make it more costly for them.

Where is the code? I couldn't find a link.
>I'll probably migrate to some proof-of-work based schemes and some algorithms to detect anomalous requests, but it would require some engineering work on my part
Have you tried mcaptcha? https://github.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha
It isn't proprietary [0]. There is a matrix channel [1] for the project to ask questions.
This is a awesome idea kernel.
