Sorry for the off-topic but while reading this I like to ask you for picocoin, see: https://github.com/jgarzik/picocoin For a research project I'm looking for a C library to operate some block chain analysis (parsing raw blocks and transactions). Has anyone of you experience with picocoin for that? Are there any relevant limitations? - oliver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
