Title: Parse blockchains
Post by: crazyideas21 on September 19, 2016, 09:55:50 PM
As a crypto-currency researcher, I examine a large number of altcoins to understand what's happening on the blockchain. However, many of these coins have multiple client versions, or syncing take a long time, or the clients are unstable.

I know I can download the blockchain database dumps from http://cryptochainer.com/. It appears, however, that you would still need to install the original clients. Is there a way to directly parse the blockchains from  http://cryptochainer.com/ without using the original clients?
