Bitiodine

A Rust Bitcoin blockchain parser with clustering capabilities, allowing to group together addresses in ownership clusters.

The parser is compatible with SegWit, correctly parses bech32 native outputs and witness programs, and deals with chain splits gracefully.

Building

cargo update
cargo build --release

Usage

Enable the desired visitor (by default, the Clusterizer is on) in src/main.rs, rebuild, and run the executable:

target/release/bitiodine-rust

$ ./bitiodine-rust --help
