Get the public lists of public keys that exist for most of the physicals, and search the internet, but this forum specifically, for mentions of them

I still haven't finished downloading all Bitcointalk posts, but if it helps, I can share what I have. It's currently around 60 GB and it takes about half a year to collect all data from the forum (with 1 request per forum).

That'd be interesting, but I cannot think of a efficient way to extract all the useful info from that dump.

When all the existing blocks will be processed, we'll have the state of all addresses "in-use" and their "balances" in BTC's blockchain.
We will process new blocks on the fly to always have an up-to-date state of addresses.

Have you considered what's going to happen to your database if you process a new block that orphans afterwards?

Thanks a lot for pointing that out !!

Well, no. I haven't thought about it, but I have a simple kinda "quick & dirty" fix :
Process all blocks until

Code:

nbCurrentBlock - 6

. It can be 12, or even 144.

Our routine to calculate the balance of each physical will most likely be updated once every 24hr, and I don't think it is a big issue for the tracker to be constantly 24hr behind.
