I want to check the balance of the bitcoin address in a list which i have. Is it possible with a script?

You could do this manually through any blockchain explorer like blockchain.info blocktrail.com etc

If you're looking to automate a program on your own machine, you could use APIs or bitcoin's JSON RPC methods.

Thanks for such quick response

I have a list of many addresses, can you help me out on how to automate the checking process.

There are two sites that you can use.
http://www.satoshiquiz.com/easybalance/easybalance.html (http://www.satoshiquiz.com/easybalance/easybalance.html). One address per line
and https://bitref.com/, it allows you to see all the transactions from both of them displayed on the same table.

ok, thanx

And how many addresses can i check on satoshiquiz in one time?

As many as you want. If you want to check hundreds of addresses use delay function to avoid the API request limit.
I had no problems checking 1000 addresses at a time

ok, last question, what delay time i have to set on the satoshiquiz at bottom of the page in advance setting. Is 1 second enough

As you wish. If you are checking lots of addresses set delay to 1-2 sec.

Thankyou very much. Now i am locking this topic.
