Abstract

Process mining has become an established set of tools and methods for analyzing process data, while blockchain is emerging as a platform for decentralized applications and inter-organizational processes. Approaches and tools have been developed for analyzing blockchain data with process mining methods, including the tools created by us: BlockXES, ELF, and BLF. Recently, we have shown that process mining on blockchain data is valuable, among others for understanding user behavior and for security audits. With this resources paper, we make four different data sets available in XES format, stemming from four different blockchain applications: Augur, Forsage, CryptoKitties, and ChickenHunt. We describe the method of extraction, data sets, and conduct preliminary analyses to demonstrate feasibility. This publication aims to help researchers and practitioners to understand the application domain, and enables future process mining research on the data sets.
