BitcoinBlockchainParser

This library provides a parser for files containing the Bitcoin blockchain.

Features

  • Detects outputs types
  • Detects addresses in outputs
  • Interprets scripts
  • Supports SegWit and Taproot
  • Supports ordered block parsing
  • Supports file XOR-deobfuscation (Bitcoin Core 28.0 or newer)

Examples

Below are two basic examples for parsing the blockchain.

Unordered Blocks

This blockchain parser parses raw blocks saved in Bitcoin Core's blk file format. Bitcoin Core does not guarantee that these blocks are saved in order. If your application does not require that blocks are parsed in order, the EnumerateBlocks method can be used.

using BitcoinBlockchainParser;

var blockchain = new Blockchain(@"C:\Bitcoin\blocks");

foreach (var block in blockchain.EnumerateBlocks().Take(5))
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Block: {block.Id}  Time: {block.Time:o}");

    foreach (var tx in block.Transactions.Take(3))
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"   TX: {tx.TXID}  Ins: {tx.Inputs.Length}  Outs: {tx.Outputs.Length}");
    }

    Console.WriteLine();
}

Ordered Blocks

If maintaining block order is necessary for your application, you should use the EnumerateBlocksOrdered method.

using BitcoinBlockchainParser;

var blockchain = new Blockchain(@"C:\Bitcoin\blocks");

foreach (var block in blockchain.EnumerateBlocksOrdered().Skip(50).Take(20))
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Block #{block.Height} {block.Id}  Time: {block.Time:o}");
}
