## Sample Notice

This dataset contains **a small sample** of the full BlockDB Raw Blocks dataset.  
It is provided **for evaluation, research, and interoperability testing only**.

If you need full historical coverage, real-time streaming, or end-of-day (EOD) exports
please contact us directly:

📧 **support@blockdb.io**  
🌐 https://www.blockdb.io  


## Dataset Overview
Each block entry contains the complete structural and integrity metadata required to reconstruct or verify the block state:
hashes, parent linkage, miner address, gas and size metrics, timestamps, extra data, and lineage identifiers (_tracing_id, _computed_receipt_root).


## Chains and Coverage
ETH, BSC, Base, Arbitrum, Unichain, Avalanche, Polygon, Celo, Linea, Optimism (others on request).
Full history from chain genesis; reorg-aware real-time ingestion and updates.


## Schema
List of columns exactly as delivered:

    •	block_number BIGINT - Sequential block number
    •	block_hash BYTEA - 32-byte block hash
    •	parent_hash BYTEA - 32-byte parent block hash
    •	receipts_root BYTEA - Root hash of all receipts in the block
    •	miner BYTEA - 20-byte miner (beneficiary) address
    •	gas_limit NUMERIC(78,0) - Maximum gas allowed for the block
    •	extra_data BYTEA - Arbitrary ≤32-byte payload embedded by the block producer
    •	size BIGINT - Total block size in bytes (header + transactions + receipts)
    •	timestamp_utc TIMESTAMPTZ - UTC timestamp when the block was mined
    •	_tracing_id BYTEA - Deterministic tracing ID of this block record
    •	_computed_receipt_root BYTEA - Recomputed receipts root (BlockDB integrity check)
    •	_computed_receipt_timestamp_utc TIMESTAMPTZ - Timestamp when the receipts root was computed or revalidated
    •	_created_at TIMESTAMPTZ - Record creation timestamp
    •	_updated_at TIMESTAMPTZ - Record last update timestamp


### Notes
    •	Use encode(block_hash, 'hex') to convert binary values to hex for presentation or joins.
    •	Every block record is verified against the node RPC.


## Lineage
Each block record includes a deterministic _tracing_id, forming the root lineage reference for all derived BlockDB datasets (swaps, liquidity, and token prices).
This ensures verifiable traceability, reproducibility, and proof-of-derivation for every downstream record.


## Common Use Cases
    •	Benchmarking node or indexer consistency across chains
    •	Establishing canonical ground truth for analytics or compliance systems
    •	Foundation layer for derived token, swap, and liquidity datasets
    •	Validating receipts and state integrity with recomputed roots


## Quality
    •	Verifiable lineage: deterministic cryptographic hashes per row
    •	Reorg-aware ingestion: continuity and consistency across forks
    •	Complete historical coverage: from chain genesis to present
