I found that multibit sync the block very fast and having small block data.

Does anyone know how it works?
I am thinking if I can leverage it.

Thanks. It is cool!

Hi all,

I am currently trying to run bitcoin on different machines behind NAT.
Do I need to set port forwarding in my router so that other nodes can connect to me? Thanks.

I am currently working in a project which needs to look at some specifc addresses. I have evaulated some blockchain expolorer, but all of them required huge space for the whole blockchain, but I just want to capture the transactions of some specific addresses , do you have any suggestion?

The addresses will be generated in runtime.

what I am actually doing is to generate an address in runtime and starting from then, coins will be deposited to this(these) address(es). And so, I could make an assumption that there is no transaction related to this address in the previous blocks and I can capture the blocks starting from the time when I generate the address. So I think I don't need the whole blockchain.

I am currently doing a project which is required to refer to the transactions of some specific addresses which would allow me to get the unspent transactions of the those addresses. I have evaluated some of the blockchain explorers, however, they are too heavy to me since I don't need the whole blockchain.

I don't prefer connecting to the API that currently available online due to stability reason so I am thinking to develop a very slim blockchain explorer for this which I can call locally.

Do you have any hints/suggestion for me so that I can refer to? Thanks a lot.
