The kind of infos you get from http://blockchain.info/,&#xA;provided you trust this website (my program do not).&#xA;&#xA;My program should run on lightweight/embedded hardware. The execution&#xA;environment provides access to the Bitcoin network but not enough resources&#xA;to set up a trusted node along with my program. Also, my program trusts the&#xA;global Bitcoin network but no individual node.&#xA;&#xA;I would need a way to ask an untrusted Bitcoin node to compute some &#39;metric&#xA;request&#39; on my behalf and having the result of that metric request&#xA;validated by the network.&#xA;&#xA;Is there any available or work-in-progress projects that would come close&#xA;to this need ? Or should I do it myself ? :-)&#xA;&#xA;Thank you all,&#xA;&#xA;Clément Elbaz&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20140108/2a00a136/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
