Title: Blockchain Analysis - Open Source Tools
Post by: blueShift on May 10, 2019, 06:07:26 PM
Are there any open source tools out there like:-

Crystal Blockchain :- https://crystalblockchain.com/
QLUE :- https://qlue.io/en/
etc.

For doing an in depth analysis of any particular transaction or an address on Blockchain of any particular cryptocurrency

Recently SEC also put a same kindaa request on their website:-

"The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is issuing this sources sought notice as a means of conducting market research to determine the availability and technical capability of large and small businesses to provide blockchain data to support the SEC's efforts to monitor risk, improve compliance, and inform Commission policy with respect to digital assets. The SEC is seeking information for potential sources to support the goal of acquiring data for the most widely used blockchain ledgers, including the universe of available information and transaction details." - Quoted from their post.
Please go to the link for complete information:- https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&id=c18a03f93cf06df47dab8a1c1a7f87a9

Searched the internet a lot, but wasn't able to find anything substantial.
If you guys know any such tool, it would be great to know.

And if there's really a dearth of such open source tools then being a developer I think we should start working on it. If anyone is interested in contributing to the soucre code, he/she is most welcome :) :)

Please lemme know your views/comments on the same.

Here are a few links to check:

- https://blockchain.unica.it/projects/blockchain-analytics/
- Wallet explorer
- Blockchair.com
- Blockstream.info

Not sure if those can give you 'in-depth analysis' that you're looking for but it's worth mentioning. Used them many times for fun.

And using them with own risks of losses. Every one, even experts can make mistakes, even whales can make mistakes with their price manipulations, so such analyses or even in-depth analyses are only for reference. They don't guarentee anything about profits for our investments. Don't follow their suggestions if someone won't be able to accept losses in case their analytical results are wrong.

How would someone make any losses by doing analysis on Blockchain. Can you please explain?
