Title: Analysis of the Ethereum state
Author: Pérez Jiménez, Carlos

Abstract: Blockchains have gathered phenomenal interest due to their potential to disrupt established business models. Ethereum expanded the properties of blockchains to become a platform for the development and implementation of decentralised Applications. We survey the platform and its associated ecosystem and study the data structures that support the protocol, in particular the global state of the network. We also introduce a tool to extract the state from the native storage of a node of the network with the aim to facilitate the statistical study of the dataset.
