Bitcoin Asked by seonguk park on October 24, 2021
I just started studying bitcoin.
I would like to be able to download a single block from the Bitcoin network.
I referred to the following:
https://blockchain.info/rawblock/0000000000000000000212f7c098effbb7d814b481ead2b315f605371e47bae1?format=hex
But, it’s not the size of the block I know (like 1MB).
How can I get one?
Yes, it's the whole block. The hex text is 2.5 MB. Hex has 50% efficiency, so the block is 1.25 MB.
Since SegWit, blocks can be larger than 1 MB. There's a 4 MB hard limit which is almost impossible to reach. (With the largest block to date being 2.4 MB, 4.8 MB in hex)
