Many investors and researchers are attracted and involved in it.In 2012 September, Dorit Ron and Adi Shamir, Israeli researchers of the Weizmann Institute of Science, published a paper. In this paper, they analyzed many statistical properties of block chain. The two researchers take the data before May 13, 2012 of block chain as an example to describe the typical behavior of Bitcoin users. Based on those work, this paper mainly make the following work:First, an automated bitcoin data extraction program is designed. In this program, two databases MySQL and LevelDB are used together. It can import relevant information of block, trading and address into to databases and then do some statistical work about those data.Second, data of Bitcoin system during January 2009 to March 2015 was been statisticsed. These data contains blocks difficulty, file block size, numbers of transactions in a block, numbers of users, balance distribution, numbers of transactions that users participate, transaction amount, transaction costs and so on.
