This will fully work on a Node that has Bitcoin Core and LND installed.
We fully tested and worked perfect on MyNodeBTC
We fully tested and worked perfect on RaspiBlitz
We fully tested and worked perfect on BitcoinMachines
We fully tested and worked perfect on Umbrel

First Start

You will need to find the path of the files tls.cert and admin.macaroon to do the REST connection to have access to LND.
Poetry is needed to ensure every user has the same python dependencies installed.

From LOCAL Node

Open the Terminal.

-- Easy mode:
- a@A:~> sudo apt install hexyl
- a@A:~> sudo apt install jq
- a@A:~> pip3 install pybitblock
- a@A:~> pyblock
-- Manual mode:
- a@A:~> sudo apt install hexyl
- a@A:~> sudo apt install jq
- a@A:~> git clone https://github.com/curly60e/pyblock.git
- a@A:~> cd pyblock
- a@A:~> pip3 install -r requirements.txt
- a@A:~> cd pybitblock
- a@A:~> python3 PyBlock.py
-- Poetry mode:
- a@A:~> sudo apt install hexyl
- a@A:~> sudo apt install jq
- a@A:~> pip3 install poetry
- a@A:~> git clone https://github.com/curly60e/pyblock.git
- a@A:~> cd pyblock
- a@A:~> poetry install
- a@A:~> cd pybitblock
- a@A:~> poetry run python3 PyBlock.py
-- Upgrade:
- a@A:~> pip3 install pybitblock -U
- a@A:~> pyblock
- Or
- a@A:~> cd pyblock
- a@A:~> git pull origin master
- a@A:~> cd pybitblock
- a@A:~> python3 PyBlock.py
- This is how we continue.
- It will ask you for the IP:PORT (REST PORT) in this case use: localhost instead of the IP.
- Then it will ask you for the path to the tls.cert.
- Then it will ask you for the path to the admin.macaroon.
- Then it will ask you for the path to bitcoin-cli or if you have already installed just put: bitcoin-cli.
- And you are in.
From REMOTE Computer
- You will need to have tls.cert and admin.macaroon already downloaded from your LND node.
- Poetry is needed to ensure every user has the same python dependencies installed.
Open the Terminal.

-- Easy mode:
- a@A:~> sudo apt install hexyl
- a@A:~> sudo apt install jq
- a@A:~> pip3 install pybitblock
- a@A:~> pyblock
-- Manual mode:
- a@A:~> sudo apt install hexyl
- a@A:~> sudo apt install jq
- a@A:~> git clone https://github.com/curly60e/pyblock.git
- a@A:~> cd pyblock
- a@A:~> pip3 install -r requirements.txt
- a@A:~> cd pybitblock
- a@A:~> python3 PyBlock.py

- a@A:~> sudo apt install hexyl
- a@A:~> sudo apt install jq
- a@A:~> pip3 install poetry
- a@A:~> git clone https://github.com/curly60e/pyblock.git
- a@A:~> cd pyblock
- a@A:~> poetry install
- a@A:~> cd pybitblock
- a@A:~> poetry run python3 PyBlock.py
  - This is how we continue.
  - It will ask you for the IP:PORT (REST PORT).
  - Then it will ask you for the path to the tls.cert.
  - Then it will ask you for the path to the admin.macaroon.
  - Then it will ask you for the path to bitcoin-cli or if you have already installed just put: bitcoin-cli.
  - And you are in.

Dependencies

Install Curl on Debian based type:
- sudo apt install curl

How to execute

python3 PyBlock.py

OracleVision Integration (BIP-110 & Mempool Analysis)

PyBLOCK includes a lightweight integration with OracleVision for sovereign node operators running Bitcoin Knots with BIP-110 policy enabled. Philosophy: Don't Trust, Verify — all analysis runs locally against your node via bitcoin-cli.

Built-in features (Bitcoin → OV. OracleVision)

Option	What it does
BIP-110 Block Scanner	Scans recent blocks for consensus violations, spam score (0–100), and status (CLEAN / SUSPICIOUS / VIOLATION)
Mempool Glass	Categorizes your node's current `getblocktemplate` into economic, consolidation, coinjoin, and spam buckets
Block Detail View	Deep-dive into a single block: miner tag, witness %, violation flags, problematic transactions — with drill-down to Transaction Inspector
Transaction & Address Inspector	Inspect any txid (flow, fees, BIP-110 flags, spam signals) or address (UTXO balance, mempool exposure) — verified locally
Launch Full OracleVision	Opens the standalone Textual TUI if installed (DATUM mining, Ocean panels, live charts, multi-screen navigation)

Configuration

Copy the example config and adjust for your node:

cp pybitblock/config/oraclevision.conf.example pybitblock/config/oraclevision.conf

Setting	Default	Description
`block_scan_count`	10	How many recent blocks to scan
`spam_score_threshold`	45	Score above this marks a block as VIOLATION
`bitcoin_datadir`	`""`	Optional `-datadir` for bitcoin-cli
`oraculovision_command`	`oraculovision`	Command to launch the full TUI
`max_vin_lookups`	4	Parent transaction RPC lookups to resolve input prevouts in Transaction Inspector
`scantxoutset_timeout`	90	Seconds allowed for UTXO scan in Address Inspector
`mempool_scan_limit`	30	Max mempool txs scanned for address mempool exposure
`detectors_enabled`	`["builtin"]`	Active BIP-110/spam detector plugins

Environment overrides: ORACULOVISION_BLOCK_SCAN_COUNT, ORACULOVISION_SPAM_THRESHOLD, ORACULOVISION_COMMAND, BITCOIN_DATADIR.

Full OracleVision TUI (recommended for power users)

The built-in tools cover the essentials. For the complete dashboard — DATUM solo mining panel, Ocean account stats, live mempool charts, and navigable BIP-110 tables — install the standalone project:

git clone https://github.com/MarcanoFilms/oraculovision.git
cd oraculovision
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
oraculovision

From PyBLOCK, use Bitcoin → OV. OracleVision → E. Launch Full OracleVision TUI.

Extending detection logic

The analysis engine lives in pybitblock/oraclevision/ and is intentionally modular:

script_parser.py — BIP-110 size limits and witness/script parsing
detectors/ — pluggable per-transaction rule checks (register new detectors via config)
bip110.py — per-block aggregation and spam scoring
spam_score.py — heuristic scoring (community-tunable weights)
mempool_compose.py — block template categorization
tx_flow.py / tx_service.py — transaction flow parsing and deep inspection
address_service.py — UTXO balance and mempool exposure for addresses

Pull requests that improve heuristics or add new violation rules are welcome. Add detectors in oraclevision/detectors/ and keep UI code in oraclevision/ui.py separate from detection logic.

Running PyBLOCK using Docker

First check out or unzip the code to a directory, cd to that directory, and from there type the following commands: (Make sure Docker desktop is running in the background "sudo service docker start".)
