Hey! I would like to ask for some help. The goal would be to pull data straight from the Cardano blockchain without a 3rd party. Can someone give me some advice? Thank you! ---

What do you mean “without a 3rd party”? Are you aware of [cardano-db-sync](https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-db-sync) ? It is a component that connects to a locally running Cardano node, extracts information about blocks, transactions etc and puts them in a PostgreSQL database. ---

If `cardano-db-sync` doesn’t contain the information you need, there are examples in [cardano-node/cardano-client-demo at master · input-output-hk/cardano-node · GitHub](https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-node/tree/master/cardano-client-demo) for accessing all of the blockchain data, if connected to a locally running node.
