Why is the “top” data as of Nov 12th?

I just haven't updated it lately. Thanks for the reminder. I'll run the scripts now.

Nice, just curious, how exactly are you updating it? I've been working on https://luabase.com/ and started with Ethereum but plan to add bitcoin next.

There's a blog post on the same site that talks about using https://github.com/in3rsha/bitcoin-utxo-dump. I'm running a pruned node, I use that lib to dump the address and balance to a csv and then I pull out the top 100 or so.

Something is off with the output of parsing the utxos. I'll have to dig deeper into it later!
