Title: How can I receive all the latest transactions?
Post by: tcory on February 16, 2014, 11:25:53 PM
Is it possible to use Bitcoind to receive ALL latest transactions? Or is there other tools I can download that let me listen to all the transactions.

 I know I can use blockchain.info API to do this, but I would like to have my own tool. How is Blockchain.info is able to get all the transactions.

One word: chainsnort :)  See the thread in project discussion.

Chainsnort uses Blockchain.info service. I think he wants to create his own tool without using Blockchain.info service

They likely modified the client similar to the way -walletnotify works.

If you want some sample code to listen to the blockchain API transaction subscriptions, check out www.bitsonata.com

Actually an RPC connector for chainsnort is under development and a first minimal version is about to be posted... (See latest replies in that thread)
