Ask HN: How to Download Blockchain Data?
I wish to download every transaction that happened on blockchain since the genesis. In particular, I want to download data for BSC.
* How do I download blockchain data?, e.g. Is there an API or a protocol I can use?
* Once I've dowloaded the data to date... How do I subscribe to new transactions?

- wmf 6y agoInstall a full node and perform a full sync: https://docs.binance.org/smart-chain/developer/fullnode.html https://docs.binance.org/smart-chain/developer/fullnode.html Then use the RPC API (looks like BSC is a clone of Ethereum so it uses the same API): https://eth.wiki/json-rpc/API https://eth.wiki/json-rpc/API
