Title: Econometric analysis of the blockchain Post by: QueenElizabeth on July 16, 2013, 07:26:47 AM I would like to perform some standard econometric analysis of Bitcoin transactions, so as to see which external factors may contribute to increase/decrease of payment activity, market liquidity etc. The problem is that I don't know how to turn the blockchain into a database that may be used with statistical analysis softwares such as Stata, SAS etc; did anyone do this already?
Thanks QE Title: Re: Econometric analysis of the blockchain Post by: molecular on July 16, 2013, 07:40:54 PM I would like to perform some standard econometric analysis of Bitcoin transactions, so as to see which external factors may contribute to increase/decrease of payment activity, market liquidity etc. The problem is that I don't know how to turn the blockchain into a database that may be used with statistical analysis softwares such as Stata, SAS etc; did anyone do this already? Thanks QE I don't know, but you can use bitcoin-abe by John Tob(e)y to turn the blockchain into a sql database (mysql or postgres) for a start.
