# UTXO Set Parser

Bitcoin Core produces a large binary file containing a compressed representation of the UTXO set via the `dumptxoutset` RPC call. This library contains data structures to parse and decompress the resulting dump file.

## Creating a UTXO Snapshot with Bitcoin Core

Generating the snapshot takes a few minutes and requires more than 10 GB.

```shell
$ bitcoin-cli dumptxoutset /tmp/utxo.dat
{
  "coins_written": 161672056,
  "base_hash": "0000000000000000000165eb2d431a3c8c798b251d02ad64642de413adf67277",
  "base_height": 830610,
  "path": "/tmp/utxo.dat",
  "txoutset_hash": "c6e8ea01a867bd31aacaeae613ad07be0730f3ad67db6abe626469ce3e32169b",
  "nchaintx": 965912411
}
```

## Parsing with Example Program

Check for basic parsing of the dump file.

```shell
$ cargo run -p txoutset-csv -- -c /tmp/utxo.dat
Dump opened.
 Block Hash: 0000000000000000000165eb2d431a3c8c798b251d02ad64642de413adf67277
 UTXO Set Size: 161672056
```

Parse entries and use in pipeline. In this example, we find coinbase outputs.

```shell
$ cargo run -p txoutset-csv -- -a /tmp/utxo.dat | grep ":0,1," | head -n 10
