Hive & Bitcoin: Analytics on Blockchain data with SQL
You can now analyze the Bitcoin Blockchain using Hive and the hadoopcryptoledger library with the new HiveSerde plugin. Basically you can link any data that you loaded in Hive with Bitcoin Blockchain data. For example, you can link Blockchain data with important events in history to determine what causes Bitcoin exchange rates to increase or…

Using Apache Spark to Analyze the Bitcoin Blockchain
The hadoopcryptoledger library provides now a simple example how you can analyze the Bitcoin Blockchain with Apache Spark. Previously, I described how you can use Hadoop MR or any other Hadoop ecosystem-compatible application to analyze it. Basically, it leverages the HadoopRDD API to read the Hadoop File Format of the hadoopcryptoledger library. Afterwards you can…
