BlockchainBlockData (for bloxberg)

BlockchainBlockData["hash"]

gives information about the block with the specified hash on the bloxberg blockchain.

BlockchainBlockData[n]

gives information about block n on the bloxberg blockchain.

BlockchainBlockData[-n]

gives information about the block n elements from the end of the bloxberg blockchain.

BlockchainBlockData[bspec,prop]

gives the specified property of the block.

Details

  • BlockchainBlockData[-1] gives information on the latest bloxberg block.
  • Properties include:
  • "BlockHash"hash of this block
    "BlockNumber"number (height) of this block in the bloxberg blockchain
    "Timestamp"time when this block was validated
    "ValidatorAddress"validator address
    "ValidatorName"validator name
    "ByteCount"byte count for this block
    "Confirmations"number of confirmations
    "GasUsed"total used gas by all transactions in this block
    "GasLimit"maximum gas allowed in this block
    "PreviousBlockHash"hash of the previous block
