Remove unavailable service providers #299

I noticed most included bitcoin testnet provider apis are down or not available. Also the included mainnet providers mostly have a somewhat shady history and there are more reliable and trustworthy apis available, both for main and testnet.

Ok i see blockstream and mempool are already added, maybe it's sufficient to clean out some old providers which closed their api
