I’d very much appreciate some hand holding re dumping the block data into a text file.

I’m not a programmer, and gavinandresen’s Python is pretty much impenetrable for me.

I am a data (SQL) geek, and would like to analyze Bitcoin transaction history, focusing on swarm composition and such. I’m particularly interested in approaches for detecting attacks.

Thanks for any help that y’all can provide.
