Yes, I will help you Smiley

Let's first establish what you need, as insight may not be the answer. Do you need a constantly updated block chain database, or to analyse a timestamped dump?

Also, do you require the full chain data, or only certain parts?

Finally, have you ensured that all dependencies are installed, https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp details what you need.

Coinsolidation, after a week of all nighters and only 16 hours sleep, 1,00 gray hairs and 500 cuss words later, you have finally put light at the end of the old guys tunnel.

Yes i need full constantly updated chain data, data that i cannot get without getting banned from other services for querying too much from. Working on algorithms for measuring bitcoin adoption, truly lost or "dead" coins, hourly transaction volume, hourly price points and a ton of other stuff. I am an economics professor who has recently taken an interest in the economics of bitcoin after attending a conference that was held an hour from my home town.

In principal since i cannot have insight on the web server where all my other applications are installed, i am going to need to be able to access insight on the local network. would the standard  Ubuntu 14.04 be able to be configured as such or do i need some sort of server environment. Ideally i would like to be able to code into my applications get XXXXXX data from 192.168.2.XX:3000/api/command.
