Whilst JSON is a great starting file format it would be great if we could have additional file formats for exporting the block data:

Protocol Buffers:

  • Efficiency: These formats are highly efficient in terms of space, as they serialize data in a compact binary form.
  • Speed: They offer fast serialization and deserialization, which is crucial for handling large volumes of block data.
  • Compatibility: These formats provide cross-language support, making them a good choice for systems where interoperability is important.

Database Formats (like SQLite):

  • Using a database file format like SQLite can be beneficial for querying and managing block data.
  • This approach may add some overhead compared to raw binary formats but offers more flexibility in data handling.
