Hi,

I used znort987's github blockchain parsing repo to get the following output on blocks:

3   \0\0\0\0‚µU‰£ýòÔºÿ@>o à5¥Ùt,®b•FDI   1231470173
4   \0\0\0\0NºÛUî–É¢øˆ\   ÚYÀÖ‹"¨ŽH„J…   1231470988
5   \0\0\0\0›rb1]¿‡­6V\   {‰*¿ý•¡ "ø–õ3ü   1231471428
6   \0\0\0\001 ç75i Zò¤¾‚U;*·vûÓ¢Üw   1231471789
7   \0\0\0\0q–l+_ÔF±ä…²ÉÙYJÍ ̽TAÏÈ”D   1231472369

The middle column is a block's hash. How can I change this hash into alphanumeric characters? E.g.   "hash":"0000000000000001bfd57dad6bad2a345a47d6f3b4eb91925a6084016c1c19bc",


Thanks!

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Convert each byte to a hexadecimal representation. For each byte b of the hash, compute b / 16 and b % 16 as the two hexadecimal digits that represent that byte.

That sounds correct in principle, but how can I apply those operations to the string:

\0\0\0\0‚µU‰£ýòÔºÿ@>o à5¥Ùt,®b•FDI

?

Thanks!

Does anyone have a method for transforming these type of characters into alphanumeric strings?

Yeah, true. You would need to get the actual bytes instead or use a modified blockparser that outputs the hash instead of those characters.
